Pros

Good starting pay and benefits. Excellent management team.

Cons

Very closed minded culture among lower level employees. Not welcoming of outside hires. Fellow workers seemed more interested in looking busy than actually doing work. If you're motivated and a hard charger, prepare to get the stink eye. The union seemed like its only purpose was to stick it to Bridgestone for buying out Firestone and to keep the company out of the 21st century. Actual quote from union steward: "They aren't taking this factory anywhere, all these machines are bolted down."
