Pros

Coworkers were great to work with and you could explore many departments. Good experience and leadership skill use in the role at the start at a fast pace (mostly due to the fast turnover of employees either promoted or left).

Cons

The company politics were difficult to navigate. Communication was also not done well between plants and corporate. Also anytime you wanted to get a change in, it took so long to do (like capital investment approvals that have to go all the way to the CEO for approval). Lots of plant employees were laid off when production slowed. You were expected to figure out everything yourself or be gone within 12-18 months. Lots of overtime. No work life balance.

Pros

There really isn't much idle time. Plenty of work orders and PM's to do each shift.

Cons

No advancement, None. The company has been through several hiring freezes, and most departments are short handed. It has been a revolving door. Instead of filling the positions they have just doubled the workload on the employees.
