Pros

Our business unit specializes in software development, which means faster technology adoption. Smaller company feel. Not much micro-management.

Cons

Corporate is based on manufacturing, so sometimes there's strife between our needs and their policies. Global diversion has cultural difficulties as well.

Pros

Good pay, (most) coworkers have patience to train you, lots of benefits (paid gym membership, small discounts to many stores, great insurance, tuition reimbursement). Able to apply for a higher position (but based on seniority to get it).

Cons

You get told that the company's number one priority is safety, but sometimes it's obvious that production is more important. In the factory that i work, there is no air conditioning. Be prepared for very, very hot summers while working about 60 hours a week. I go to school full time, but no flexibility in my work schedule; you will have to fit schooling around your job.
