Pros

Good starting salary, and teamwork embedded in the culture.

No pension, PTO is very low outside of management, cumbersome to carryover. Mediocre health benefits, HR only views employees as a place to cut costs.

Pros

Smaller feel, good for prioritizing family and life outside of work. Not too competitive between co-workers. Great collaborative culture.

Cons

On the smaller side means less opportunities and more waiting for roles to open up and advance. I saw a lot of people leave for better opportunities.

12-hour swing shift leads to abysmal work/life balance.
