Pros

Competitive benefits (seem to decrease each year, along with other companies) Livable wages Opportunities to advance Can do bare minimum and stay employed

Cons

Can do bare minimum and stay employed (this is a con if your a hard worker) Advanced opportunities still don't pay well. Corporate oversight makes it extremely difficult to get approval on necessary projects, or beneficial projects. Flat raises last 2 years no matter if you've gone above and beyond both years.

BD Sucks

Pros

Salary, easy to get raises.

Cons

Everything. Management sucks. Hours suck. Machines are old and don’t work properly yet somehow everything is always employees fault for nothing working. Too much work for one person to do. Understaffed. Only care about product numbers. Management doesn’t care about employees. Management doesn’t take complaints seriously. Management let’s male workers harass female workers.

Pros

Good benefits, job stability, a way to get a lot of experience for your resume

Cons

Despite lots of hiring and growth, teams are chronically under resourced because the only way to add headcount is to add more work, even if existing employees are already handling more than they should be. Seems to be common practice to just keep adding more and more onto an employee's responsibilities and seeing if they sink or swim. Toxic work environment that thrives on blame culture. Everyone is constantly trying to cover themselves so that if something goes wrong, they won't get thrown in front of the bus.
