Pros

Hourly employees will work for you for hours to an end.

Cons

Upper Management doesn't feel that the employees mean anything to the company or have a life outside the company. If you want a day off you better call off and take a point on your attendance because they do not believe in sick days.

Pros

Co-workers (upper management excluded) are nice people, you feel like they care about you. Company is established and has been around since the 1940s, seems to be expanding.

Cons

Corporate culture not welcoming. Ideas and innovations aren't appreciated. Communication between departments is severely lacking. Stifling environment. Promotions aren't a possibility for 80% of the company, no growth potential. When asked about advancement, told to "keep your resume out there". Hourly employees do not get sick days.

Pros

It is a relatively stable work environment. Most managers are flexible and easy to work around once they are a known quantity. Location is outside of the metro areas so no city driving unless that is where you're coming from.

Cons

Advancement is rare. Cross team communication and cooperation is bad at times. Upper management needs to trust middle management is attending to the details. That trust is mislaid sometimes. Bad managers tend to stay in place far too long. Employees get job training that is very myopic and as a result many don't understand how other departments and the business as a whole operates. Location is a bit remote. Not many conveniences close by.
