Pros

Good benefits (when business is good)

Cons

Poor benefits when business is bad (very quick to eliminate the low cost morale boosters i.e. bonuses, lunches, company sponsored events), poor morale, poor leadership, too many chiefs, too much paperwork & forms, too much emphasis on action items and not enough on the work that is actually done, everything requires hand written sign-offs which is very time consuming and outdated, no opportunity for career advancement (at current site), WAY TOO MUCH politics and game playing, each department blames other departments for their mistakes, management is comically delusional and completely disconnected from what is actually going on at the site, WAY TOO MUCH D&I to the point where under qualified personnel are hired/promoted meanwhile they let the qualified/deserving candidates go straight to their competition, no effort to develop talent, no effort to retain talent

Pros

Supportive team environment with good learning opportunities and exposure to large-scale projects. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the company offers strong brand recognition and career development resources.

Cons

Decision-making can be slow due to layers of management, and processes sometimes feel overly bureaucratic. Workload and priorities can shift quickly, which may create stress depending on the team.
