Pros

Pay, Bonuses, Paid Benefits(single) and Job Stability. This company produces lead, recycles and adheres to EPA/OSHA standards! Great company to work for.

Cons

Pay is decent, however with the type of work involved and environment you have to work in, I think the starting pay and overall pay for general laborers and leads are below average and way less than the sister location in Eagan, MN.
