Pros

The coworkers are a good group of people to work with. Very easy to talk to. It is a community of people willing to share knowledge to help you learn. They don't hoard it, worrying you may be out for their job. They are supportive and want you to succeed.

Cons

Once you are in a position, it is hard to move up. Multiple people have been told they are too integral in their position and it would be too difficult to replace them. It's in the best interest of the company to keep you where you are. But that is not in the best interest of the employee. There is no incentive to do your job too well, as you won't be rewarded with a promotion as you might have been promised in the interview.

Pros

A name brand company is always nice to have on a resume, Employees are generally nice. They care about safety. They have a lot of "town halls" to give you updates about financials. They want internal employees to apply for jobs if they become available. Benefits are decent - they have the minimal to entice good employees.

Cons

Four days in office, even if you were initially hired into the company as a 2 day remote employee. Office is loud and cold. There isn't even enough space but you must come into office to sit on the meetings on Teams. You will get between 0 and 3% raises and you will be told that there is not way to "exceed expectations" but you will be required to and will ambush you to create performance reviews. A giant issue is on it's way to Komatsu - all of their employees are retiring. They are all retiring right now and they are not training others to fill the roles and the next 5 years are going to be painful. Those retiring - they've seen the company go from an amazing company with pensions, extra time off, and extravagant Christmas parties to what they are today - greedy overlords with BYO food for a mid-day Christmas party lunch. It's unfortunate.
