Pros

Excellent salary and benefits, great career opportunities with potential for advancement from within

Cons

Work/personal life balance, you are expected to be available 24/7, if work at manufacturing site then plan on working 7 days a week, you will not have a life outside of work

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.
