Pros

Pay. -Start at $27.71 - 1st qualification $33 and change -2nd qual $35 and change -3rd qual $41 -4th qual $45 and change (topped out)

Cons

No real pension (3k for every yr served till retirement) Batch process is not the way to go if you can choose. (Look for continuous). Non union (is this a con?) Point system if late, sick, car trouble have to leave early, etc. 3pts = Hr meeting. 4pts=termination in a rolling yr. Ex: - call in sick .5pts (dr. Note doesn't matter) Leave early .5pts Late for any reason .5pts Call in 1 day that's a full point Call in for a full set that's 2pts You cant transfer to another location in the company. The only movement allowed is up. If you finish a degree in something that is not considered by management as a lateral move. You are better off quitting and reapplying (who would do that?)

Pros

Successful company, challenging work, good pay

Cons

People only care about money, some employees promote being environmentally irresponsible (using extra plastic bags) because it makes the company profit.
