Pros

Huge network, a lot of possibilities if you can connect with the right people

Cons

Very matrixed, difficult to get things done due to layers of management. Management varies wildly from division to division and then again at a corporate level.

Pros

Teamwork, the crew , good pay,

Cons

Long hours, forced 12hour shifts with no lunch break and over time, average week is 52 to 60 hours , short staffed regularly, management team not engaged on floor, managers with poor attitudes, no breaks. Promotions are based off of favoritism you will get the interview but they already know who they picked.
