Pros

Good salaries and time off. Complex and interesting applications.

Cons

Very poor support for technical growth among engineers, and little understanding or respect of this problem or engineering career growth as a whole. Work/life balance is not much of a concern - many of my coworkers and I have had extended periods during which we worked 6 or 7 day weeks. Upper management has recently been penny pinching in the extreme, including a thousand small cuts of benefits - very demoralizing.

Pros

1. Great Pay 2. Supervisors work with you 3. Cleanest atmosphere out of every factory I've worked

Cons

1. Mandatory 7 days a week working 8 hours or consequences, (they are in the business of killing people they'll be okay killing you) 2. Their HR isn't there for the family life it'd be okay for a single kid just learning to work supervisors will help the best of their ability though knowing how it is with a family. 3. It gets very very depressing just because there is nothing to look forward to because they cant keep with a deadline and keep pushing any promises of change.
