Pros

Decent pay, looks good on your resume.

Cons

- Leadership protects production metrics and image over real safety. - As a Hispanic female, I experienced differential treatment and subtle retaliation that felt racialized. - Managers use exclusion as sabotage to maintain power. -managers use FMLA “suggestions” to frame you as the problem and avoid accountability for their toxicity. - HR/ethics functions mainly as company protection, not real support - surveys and slogans about “caring” while punishing people who raise concerns.
