Pros

Good pay, Great benefits, very safety conscious plant, safe place to work

Cons

Very old plant. Toxic union environment. Tiered wages where all new employees hired since 2015 make 8-10$ less an hour than their counterparts doing the same exact job. No opportunity for growth. No incentive for high performance. Frequent layoffs
