Pros

Decent amount of vacation days offered; but if you call in sick with less than 24 hour notice, you risk disciplinary action.

Cons

Departments are running with skeleton crews and it's "great" because of the cost savings. Everything is overdue and done quickly with low/no quality. SLT is more concerned with shutting down rumors about the negative work atmosphere than actually fixing the work atmosphere. No double time for hourly staff; Holidays don't count towards OT; people are forced to work Holiday weekends; Some hourly staff forced to work 12 hour shifts with 12 days on/2 days.

Pros

My management is excellent - always feel like they have my back. New dress policy is nice (can wear jeans) and during summer they have "Summer Hours" (work longer M-Th and half day on Fri). Have a lot of amenities onsite in Round Lake (drycleaning, oil change, fitness center, Starbucks barista, etc). Working with sites globally is an amazing experience - get to see a lot and expand my network.

Cons

Being part of Corporate America - there seems to be lots of cooks in the kitchen. Good initiatives to improve the company but with new management last year (2016). expectations seem unrealistic. Direction from executive level makes corporate group work towards one goal and the plants another. We are both told to "get it done" - but that conflicts with the same resources.
