Pros

Vacation, lots of shutdowns and benefits

Cons

Management only promotes their favorites. So it's very difficult so move up if you don't spend your breaks in the manager's office. Favoritism and nepotism are only way to get anywhere. It can even get you off the forced OT list. Started as a machine operator and shortly after I was forced to become a material handler without the pay. Was also forced OT as a material handler. Again without the pay

Pros

- Multi-cultural environment; - Pay grade above the average in the region; - Free chocolate

Cons

- No technical career path in IT; - Office was too far away from city + unusual work hours sowork/life balance is terrible; - Open office is terrible if you need work without distractions; - If you're an introvert and is not BFF with everyone in your team and is not smiling all the time, you are seen as a bad employee.
