Pros

Always busy, solid company, no lay offs with plenty of opportunities to get over time. Good 401k matching dollar for dollar up to 6%.

Cons

Low wages, no bonuses. HE department was iffy at best. Need a raise schedule with clear goals. I went 5 years without a raise and didn't know what else I needed to do to advance.

Pros

Possible transfer to other companies in the Koch Industries portfolio if desired.

Cons

David Koch. The company is privately held and from what I have seen was run mainly to satisfy his ego. Upper management don't make management decisions so much as make David Koch's ideas come true. When an idea fails, the manager is blamed and fired, so management is in a constant state of near panic. The place very much resembles the fable of the emperor with no clothes. Besides philosophical downsides, there is the low pay, long hours, lack of a plan after Koch gives up control, and the deluge of political emails during campaign seasons.
