Pros

Excellent starting salary. Performance bonus every pay day. Two weeks paid vacation after first year. High 401k company match. Good dental plan.

Cons

Pushed to physical limits almost every day to make production numbers. Promotion among floor workers non-existent. Numbers driven despite "commitment to quality". Thirty minute lunch break. Hot.

Pros

Fun work, interesting problems to solve, good people in the office. Good 401k match.

Cons

Deere corporate doesn't care about it's employees. No promotions, tiny raises. No equity. Bad health insurance. Some people get promoted but only if you are good at kissing a** it seems.
