Pros

Lots of availability to wear several different hats, some managers are good

Cons

You will be overworked and underpaid, especially at the Spencer site. No amount of asking for help from Park 48 (Bloomington) headquarters is going to get you any help. No opportunities for advancement. Job Architecture is a joke if you're an engineer, you'll meet the requirement for the next level and get the title, but your job stays the same and you get no more pay.

Pros

I left my old wage here because Cook just gave a $1 increase to current employees but not new ones, so yeah.. any ways the Benefits, Schedule flexibility, and Overtime are probably the only good things.

Cons

Higher-ups suck. Ranging from team leads to middle management. Lots of other departments are typically nice, but some departments are all about control and leave no room for moving up, especially with all the favoritism each department has.
