Pros

Free (bland) beer, opportunity to make a lot of money if you are happy working overtime, you don't take your work home with you (you just never go home)

Cons

For new engineers right out of college they expect you to do mandatory overtime every other weekend. That means you work 12 days on and then only get 2 days off... and you're rotating shifts, so 2/3 of the time you're not on normal working hours. Also, the unions hate management, and you are a part of management, so they hate you. Management only cares about your up-time, and rarely supports you in a dispute with the unions. You leave work tired, unhappy, and bitter with just about everyone you work with. Don't get sucked in by the promise of lots of money in overtime... it's not worth it. I was told the four year retention rate is only 20%. That means 4 out of 5 engineers leave the company for something else.... Probably a place that respects their work-life balance

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Free beer.

Cons

Very toxic work environment before and after InBev. Not worth the money. Employees and management can be mean, surly, back-biting, ruthless and homophobic. The only reason people stay is for the money, but a lot are miserable. You see these senior managers post glowing reviews, and it's not true.
