      Don't walk away from this opportunity. "Run"

      Pros

      Plenty of opportunity to grow. New machines that come in are pretty modern.

      Cons

      Management lacks the fore sight to retain the good employees, and promotes the ones they should let go. Old garbage equipment and machines on there last leg.
