Pros

Advanced technical knowledge with long hours, but a flexible work schedule. This is a plant position with little room for growth.

Cons

The pay for this job is 75-90K per year with little room for improvement. The job requires exceptional technical skills but does not compensate for the skills compared to other positions.

Pros

Good Benefits, great people, great infrastructure. Solid company with different entities to move laterally. Many lifers waiting to retire or die

Cons

Their way or the highway. Not interested in any other opinions than their own. They say that they promote diversity but what they really support is affirmative action

Pros

Amazing benifits and friendly work atmosphere. They offer plenty of opportunities for professional education.

Cons

Base pay can be lower than industry average (however the benifits and bonus make up for it).
