Pros

You'll have plenty to do, and you'll learn a lot in a comfy job. Pretty laid back office environment.

Cons

What's for lunch at the next meeting is more important than employee complaints. Favoritism is rampant, and HR is incompetent. They will try sell you on benefits, and although they are good, you'll be paid less for them.

Pros

Good compensation, benefits include medical, dental and vision, 401k match, and a pension. In general, rank and file employees are treated with respect by leadership. Managers listen the the opinions of their subordinates and inter-departmental collaboration is encouraged.

Cons

401k match isn't as high as that of other employers. Leadership positions are often filled by outside candidates. AECC will not provide the leadership experience they require for management positions, but won't promote without it either. Employees are regularly pushed to work longer hours than normal. There is a lack of diversity at remote locations and it shows. Plant staff (including management) are vocal about their political opinions and intolerant of divergent viewpoints.

Benefits, friendly co workers. New CEO.

Cons

You may not be paid what you are worth. It's a Co-op but also a job!
