Pros

Renowned company, good to have on your cv Expanding company Advantages in the form of courses for long-time employees

Cons

There are some very skilled and hard-working people in that company, but there are also many whose only activity during the day is to play politics to get to the top. Processes are an important part of the company, as it should be in any company this size, however, these processes will not be clearly explained to joining employees and because of their sheer number, they even hamper the effective work of seasoned employees.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
