Pros

You will always have a job. You could be lazy, have half a brain and not care about anything, and as long as you show up for work, you will get a paycheck and the same raise as someone who works as hard as they could and knows how to do many different things and has been there for much longer. Pay is decent but much more is deserved for how hard you have to work in some positions. Pay is overall not worth being on your feet and watched closer than you would if you were in prison for ten and a half hours. Good job if you are passionate about cylinders or if you have no self respect and do exactly what people say without question. Basically the production version of the military which is probably why they hire most people with military experience.

Cons

On your feet for ten hours, minimal breaks, know it all management that always wants more and more and more. They expect you to do a lot of things that you do not have the tools to do. One supervisor on nights is a brown nose, know it all who thinks he is better than everyone and when the boss is gone he decides that he can do whatever he wants and call all of the shots. If you're one minute late from break, expect to get a write up, if you leave at break time but the dismissal bell hasn't gone off, expect a write up. A lot of positions are boring, but you still may not at any time sit down. No matter how long you are there, unless you suck up to management and get them to like you or threaten to quit, you will get a small raise no matter how much you know or how hard you work. They pay you the bare minimum to get by, making it very hard to leave. If you are sick more than they allow, even with a doctors note, you will get a dollar an hour deducted from your pay for two weeks. Can be very stressful and very physical, especially if you are a tester. If you work there for a while, expect to have a lot of health issues for the rest of your life because it wears on your body very hard. You get soaked in hydraulic oil, get in trouble for everything you do outside of their thick book of rules. If you go to the bathroom any time other than break they tell you you should do that during break. NO ROOM TO ADVANCE unless you have a college degree, and if you have your degree there are many many better places to work than here. Do not work here unless it is your last option, and then take the next job that comes available for you. No work life balance. On night shift you go to work go home go to sleep and wake up and go right back to work. No personal time. If you don't work Friday's or are sick for a few days, they put it in your review so they can lower your raise even more and try to make you think you are not a good employee. They degrade you any chance they get and treat you like a robot that doesn't stop running.

Not a good place to work!

Pros

If you don't want to challenge yourself. This is the place to work. If your a reparative type worker then this is a place to work.

Cons

No room for advancement. Employees turn on each other for personal gain. Training program at its lowest. Managers said good job security but recently layed off 2 shifts. For about a year. Slowly going back to all 3 shifts.
