They are trying to develop new talent, which is good for future managers. Go there to get initial industry experience.

Cons

It is a very small company in a small town, so the location is not the best possible. It is also a bit dreary in the office

Pros

The physical plant was well maintained. Had a very diverse make-up of production employees. Felt somewhat safe working the night shift.

Cons

The upper management always seemed to be pulling at straws when it came to getting efficient production systems in place. It was always a guessing game when it came to getting the product out the door.
