Pros

really none, although i learned a lot about psychology and how management berates and covers themselves to fault the employee ( with no training )

Cons

too many to list, but here goes... anyone in the executive band; long hours; training and lack of documentation in supply chain; the yelling...; egos; Erie PA and the animositt between the true workers on the shop floor and management; did i mention Supply Chain? health insurance (or lack of it)

Pros

Straight overtime for salary folk on the production floor. Never will be bored. Plenty of learning opportunities to show how not to organize or manage a production environment.

Cons

Long days (12+ hrs) plus weekends will be spent In the shop. You will not see the sun in winter. Management effectiveness is measured in decibels. No hint of an opportunity to grow or diversify. You are measured on several metrics that are directly contradictory, ensuring you will fail in some way everytime. Upon failure, you will be publicly ridiculed on your appearance, personality, gender, and maybe (in part) about the actual failure to perform to above metrics. No instruction or coaching or advice in how to improve.

Pros

Used to be many. Not recommending anyone to join at this time. I'm leaving, after over 20 years, and starting over where I will be utilized. Good for young people with no experience.

Cons

Hours, pay, benefits, elitism is on the rise, promoting good talkers, no rewards for the doers. No respect for young people with real talent.
