Pros

you may be able to gain some new skills to help you move forward in life.

Cons

the only thing that awaits the worker that put his time in is a good pay check vs. bad knees. After a period of time the knees and legs of their workers starts bending as a result the awkward awkward duties required. the solution is simple , better equipment and more modern production technology so the worker has a shot at retirement with out the issues many of them face, but if they got better equipment would they create as many jobs/ hmm...

Business Outlook

Pros

Healthy work-life balance, working excessive hours is not an expectation. Coworkers are generally friendly, willing to work together while making the day enjoyable. Fast-moving environment with many opportunities to improve design and product.

Cons

Salary is competitive, but sub-par benefits make net salary below competitive rates. Promotions are difficult to come by in some instances. General feeling amongst employees that annual raises are sub-par. In some cases, management seems to lack familiarity of important parts of the business. Physical work environment well overdue for some upgrades.
