Pros

Many opportunities to move in the company (so long as it's somewhere else). Good pay.

Cons

Pay for salaried Supervisors took a major hit after the Medtronic acquisition. Supervisors at this plant are now expected to work over the weekend, once a month, for 12 hours each day for free. In the past, we would be paid straight time for the OT. This effectively cut the pay by over $10,000/year. A lot of in-fighting with management, resulting in high turnover of high level management.
