Pros

The company pushes employees to move around in different roles. So there is always an opprotunity to find another position if you don't like your manager or job.

Cons

Leadership sill values old school way of managing employees. A very micro-manage oriented system. The forced ranking is a good example of that. No one uses that system anymore. They have modified it a bit, but not much really. They just don't fire you right away now where in the past they would. Pay is also a bit under the sytandard. They claim that the benefits and profit sharing more than makes up for it. But lets be honest every one else offers the same benefits and profit sharing so it DOES NOT.

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.
