Pros

Good pay and benefits for unskilled/qualified lads. Car scheme is good aslong as you treat the car with respect otherwise repair costs can run very high, very quickly.

Cons

The list is endless! Too much mandatory overtime. Zero help/support when you're genuinely unfit for work. I was off for 6 weeks due to a head injury and received endless calls, letters, appointments at the personnel dept and threats. Provided all necessary proof that was asked of me and because it all stated I was unfit to be onsite never mind work I was threatened with the sack and that was after their own OH Dr said I shouldn't be there. You're basically just another body that can easily be replaced, regardless of length of service or skill level. If you're happy to stand and do the same thing literally every minute for up to 10 hours and take your supervisors crap lying down then this is the place for you.

Pros

Great hourly pay, paid shutdowns about 5 weeks off total throughout the year, able to lease vehicles for cheap.

Cons

I made a deal with the devil over 4 years ago. Nissan has given me every opportunity to afford everything I need to get stability in my life. 4 years later, I wish I could give it all back because they own me. You're treated like you're nothing to them. They expect you to put their needs before your own in all situations. If you're out of what little paid time you get, good luck being there for your children. They will have you're write up hot off the printer awaiting your return. I was literally given the ultimatum to choose which family member needed medical treatment more. They dont care about you or your family. They reallocate your pay to give the impression they're paying you competitively, "profit" share bonuses do not reflect the outcome of company performance, yet have the funds to drop tens of millions on a single advertising opportunity a week later. If you get hurt, they will find a way to push liability on you, even if it is just from wear and tear on your body. Take my advice, find something you're passionate about and roll with it. All this company can offer you is money and you will leave a lesser, more bitter person at the end of the day.
