Pros

There is some mobility and opportunity with an aging workforce. The company itself is doing really well

Cons

Management does not give you the tool to succeed and will leave you hanging. It isn't all their fault. HQ is incredibly understaffed and there is too much work to go around. People are constantly forced into situations or projects that they do not have the skills to deal with and reprimanded when things go wrong. Rules are not spelled out well (which is really bad in engineering) and you are essentially flying by the seat of your pants. I should also mention that this is a good place to gain experience but you will probably be paid less than market rate. The culture is also extremely negative.

Pros

Pay is decent but still average for the work, Benefits package is ok but the insurer used is sub-par.

Cons

Don't get sick working for this company, Even with a doctors note you get penalized with points and after 7 points you are fired. The amount of vacation time given even after being there for 6 years is very poor. There is no personal or sick time. Points are extremely easy to accumulate. The turnover is high for that very reason. The rules are absurdly strict and I am sure the uppermost management who wrote these rules could not live by them themselves. I drove 80 miles round trip to go to a doctor because I was sick and still got penalized at work and they refused to take my doctor note. It took me 3 days to recover. I will be looking for another job.
