Pros
The product is neat when it works. The lower ranks are almost all veterans, could be a pro or con depending on who you are. There's free soda.
Cons
All the vibrant and dedicated people left for better opportunities last year. What is left are people who can't afford to leave or plan to leave soon. It takes 5-10 years to get any kind of promotion. The pay is very low compared to the regional cost of living. Everybody I work with has valuable industry experience and can barely pay the bills each month. Many people have tried to negotiate a pay increase only to be stone walled. This is exacerbated by the harsh winters that push monthly heating costs into several hundreds of dollars. The company typically resorts to allowing overtime instead of raises, and then randomly bans overtime, leaving everybody confused and stressed out. The facility is in the middle of a popular tourist destination, meaning the commute can double or triple in the summer. Every complaint on here about management is still true. This is a very niche market, so the experience you gain here might not be very valuable elsewhere. Not that you'll have to worry about it, since they make everybody sign a non-compete agreement so that you have no other options. The company regularly makes decisions that go against all forms of rational thinking, so if you enjoy blindly following orders from people you never physically encounter you'll fit right in. Every year the company gives out jackets with the company logo embroidered on it. Some people have like 5 of these things. Please stop.
