Pros

There is a lot of work and room for process improvement which is great for an ambitious employee. Good benefits. Better than average. Company has good overall morale and hardworking employees at the plant level. Size of company allows for advancement opportunities. Truly exceptional employees are rewarded handsomely.

Cons

Lacks core mid-level career development. MBM pay structure allows for big promises and little results. Not a completely union environment so plant level employees really don't have a voice that can be heard by top level management. GP has a very old work culture, diversity hasn't made its way up to the top. Pay is average.

Pros

Autonomy Remote work opportunities Decent Pay - only if you negotiate it

Cons

Zero training Poor leadership Lack of recognition Constant focus on “closing gaps” - you’ll spend all your time talking about less than 2% of revenue/profit Inconsistent bonus payouts with no metrics to understand how they arrive at a figure No clarity on how to achieve pay increases. Constant responsibilities added to your role that were not previously part of the role you were hired for.
