Pros
I used to watch the show "How it's made" on the discovery channel, and I find this job is very much like that. I get a behind the scenes tour of manufacturers of a wide variety of products, and learn about their businesses. This role has allowed me to feed my interest in learning about "stuff" while simultaneously helping my clients. I know my job is appreciated by clients in I can help them both increase the productivity of their operations and make their employees safer in the process.
Cons
It's a 4th generation, family owned safety company, and the management can be very conservative at times. They're very interested in protecting the business and their employees, but sometimes can be hesitant to take risks. This is improving, but sometimes can be frustrating.
