Pros

sponsors h1b visa for international

Cons

Worst starting place to work at. They hired me from on campus as a manufacturing engineer. They already had 1 manufacturing engineer and I was a spare. During bad economy times they laid me off and I was asked to leave work on the same day with no prior notice. That had put my h1b visa status and marriage on hold. Worst HR staff as they have no value for human emotions.

Pros

You get paid for doing OT on weekends at the plant I work at now If you are in a shift that has less staffing you might earn more money on weekends as you will not have anyone to rotate with or less people to rotate with I am happy to have a manager who understands I have a lot of work pressure

Cons

If you are in a shift that has less staffing you will have a lot of work to do. For me the con is lots of work pressure in the shift I work. I think I do the work of atleast 2 people and sometimes even more. First shift will have people to rotate on weekends. Unfortunately 2nd shift doesn't have people to rotate with. We end up working every weekend but have same number of vacation days. People in 2nd can get there vacation days used up before other shifts. But still I would say its a good company considering I work in a manufacturing facility.
