Pros

I learned a lot of new skills and was able to buff my resume with a well respected company within the industry. Pay is good. Severance packages are very good.

Cons

Plant will be shut down in 2019 so everyone is being laid off. Management seems like they sit in enough meetings through the day to run a plant efficiently, yet this plant is super inefficient. There is no direction, or true leadership. Some of the brighter employees are looked down upon in lieu of not stirring the pot with the more senior employees.

Very bureaucratic, middle management initiates many non-value-added activities to look good.
