Pros

Local environment is very friendly and laid back. Everyone is helpful. The benefit package is nice as well. We do get the option to purchase company shares, 100% company match up to 6% for 401k plus additional deposits.

Cons

Our company was recently purchased by Rio Tinto and their IT groups are very secular and specialized which makes it hard to communicate and get things resolved. I’ve also compared my salary to others with the same job title within manufacturing companies in my state and found my salary is way below the benchmark.

Pros

Benefits package is positive. Great 401k match, and insurance with likely yearly bonus

Cons

Management in the Information Technology space is lack luster. No follow through and Extensive delays lead to upward mobility being stagnant and directly ignoring the companies values.
