Pros

Very stable job, and can be easy to grow. Relatively easy with time. Good benefits if you become a full time employee, and good vacations

Cons

Could be very boring. The location, in my perspective is terrible. Very boring town, and the communication is not great.

Pros

Great benefits I like the truck business Lots of international travel

Cons

Management is very disrespectful to most employees Management competence limited in many areas Work at Volvo in Hagerstown for over 10 years. I was able to learn a lot and I kept my job through the recession, which I am grateful for. On the downside was some spectacularly poor management. The plant manager, who was appointed in 2011 is an intelligent man but he is a poor leader. Many people were either in or out with him as soon as he took charge. The logisitcs dept was out and we have all left. Many were colleagues whom I have a great deal of respect for. The plant mgr and his staff are not a competant group to run a facility like Hagerstown. I have worked at some exceptional companies and this is not one of them. Intimidation is often the leadership tool of choice.
