Pros
Top notch 401(k) match to 6% plus extra 3% paid by the company The past few quarterly bonuses have been extremely substantial for everyone Hard to beat the hourly wages plus their raises each year are consistently about 3% Salary employees get 3 weeks vacation starting out now Salary and non-bargained hourly are getting paid parental leave starting in March Arconic is growing and making massive investment in the future.
Cons
In the past, especially during the Arconic/Howmet split and around onset of Covid it was very stressful for salary people due to pay cuts and lay-offs. It doesn't seem that the company is keeping up with base pay for what other companies are offering experienced employees. Degreed folks with 1-3 years of service may realize they are being paid very closely (sometimes less) than someone straight from college.
