Pros

- Plenty of hours if you need them - Friendly employees for the most part - Generally understanding management (though not all, as with many places)

Cons

- Tedious work. Lots of doing the same thing every month. - Poor training, many people don't know how to do their jobs correctly. Most of those who do things correctly still have no understanding of their job, they've just memorized the procedure (so they respond poorly to new situations). - Poor department interaction. You have to know who to go to (may be leads in one department, a supervisor in another, or a grunt in yet another), or you get silence in return. - Technology from the stone age (this could be seen as a positive if you're just looking to get a job, low tech keeps way more on staff than needed) - Auto Industry, a super-heavy dinosaur waiting to collapse from its weight and old age

Pros

Rules, policies, procedures, and guidelines in place that are the same for everyone.

Cons

Interpretation of the above mentioned guidelines depend on the strength, knowledge, experience and integrity of middle corporate management. Because of the sheer size of the organization, the guidelines are not always interpreted or implemented the same in all areas at all times. This leads to mixed signals
