Pros

Flexible work schedule, safety-minded, clean working environment, climate control.

Cons

It has outdated equipment; bonuses are rare and based on the entire company's performance, small raises, and no encouragement to move up the company ladder. There is lots of gossip and snakes on the grass. Direct management has its hands tied behind its back when it comes to making updates or changes in procedures or just making the job easier. You are hired as a contract-based worker and not hired directly by the company. It can take 4 months up to a year and a half before they decide to hire you or not. During that time, you don't get any holiday, sick, vacation, or personal time off. Nor will you receive any benefits until they decide to hire you.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
