Pros

Consider only as temporary employment not a company for long term employment.

Cons

Treatment of hourly and front line management boarders on abuse, considered as tools to be used until broken then simply replaced.

Pros

Benefits are mostly decent, very stable job. They will go out of thier way to accommodate any time off you need most of the time.

Cons

Pay raises are not performance based, they are a small percentage across the entire company (2%-3%) per year. (not even cost of living). 50 hours per week at a min in most positions. Usually more, which in my opinion is too much. Not much room for advancement. The largest single raise you will getis through thier "mastery program" ($1.50 hr)

Pros

Insurance, very steady work. lots of overtime available (but it is mostly mandatory 50 hour weeks). If you are familiar with tools and you can put together your new TV stand you can do this job.

Cons

At the Joliet Locations we are "Sub-Contractors" for Caterpillar. which is a fancy way of saying that Caterpillar Does not want to pay Union Workers. Basically a Large Long Term Temp service for Cat. Bergstrom Doesnt Own anything in the building except the people.
