Pros

Pay is typically better than similar positions in the area. Safety is a high priority.

Cons

Company is not employee focused. Upper management is constantly changing. Metal markets are cyclical which makes the jobs also cyclical. Layoffs happen every few years which is very stressful. Middle managers are typically yes men with no regard for the people under them. For most positions job performance is not important as long as you play the corporate game and bootlick the right people.
