Pros

This company will bend over backwards for their people. The way they took care of All of their staff during the pandemic was amazing and gave me immense pride.

Cons

I can't speak for all upline management, but mine is very sexist and not willing to help others move up. My district had a mental breakdown because of our division. And don't get me started on the micromanaging..

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
