Pros

$3.4B global business which can potentially be a good place to retire, there a lots of good employees, plenty of opportunities for change.

Cons

Sink-or-swim culture, playing favorites in certain departments, lots of work inefficiencies and ineffectiveness due to inconsistent directions from Senior management, a lot of scare tactics and whip cracking to get things done, lack of regard to product quality and customer satisfaction in favor of meeting production outputs, poor work-life balance and arrangements due to union considerations.
