Pros

Pay is ok and I have a job currently.

Cons

Remote plant locations, discourage taking a sick day even if you are dying, high deductible medical plan basically is awful, can't get in touch with anyone in benefits if there is a question or error, no raises...ever. The a/c in my office doesn't even work correctly and they can't afford to fix it or the leaking roof. A lot of people getting let go right now both salary and hourly at many plant locations. Pretty much everyone is constantly in fear that they will get their two weeks notice.
