Pros

A solid place to start your career, especially if you’re young or new to the industry. Gain valuable experience within 2-3 years, then move on to better pay elsewhere or…stay, but expect compensation below industry standards.

Cons

- Overworked, underpaid. - Annual raises barely match inflation. - Company hits $10B and gives employees… cake and balloons. - Micro aggression and subtle racism still present despite “diverse” hiring at mid-lower levels. - No union representation for plant workers. - lack of career growth (dead end).
