Pros

Employees are passionate about what they work on and are willing to help you and help the team achieve goals. Pay and benefits are good for a manufacturing job (8 floating holidays in a year + accrued PTO)

Cons

There is a 3 year cliff for your 401K Management has drastically changed over the last few years. Very politically motivated and they do not look out for the interest of their employees- only for themselves. Often they do not know what is going on down at the factory floor, and use wrong data to make quick business decisions due to pressure and speed from up top. Culture is shifting away from old Blue to more like Amazon, due to the influx of Amazon C-Suite executives being hired in. Safety culture is questionable in certain areas.
