Pros

Flexible work schedule is a major plus. In my group, we are allowed to work different hours, so long as our yield is met, and advance notice is given. My direct management is generally available and willing to help when direction is needed.

Cons

I don't think that executive management is really looking out for the employee. Pay cuts were given to employees, but not to the executive management. Throughout the various townhall meetings, you get the distinct impression that you are being told one thing, but that the actions will soon be something else. The processes in place for almost every activity can be a real headache to get through. It can be discouraging to see simple tasks take weeks or even months, due to a "process"

Pros

Some genuinely nice coworkers, that deserve better. Sometimes provide free food BUT consists of unhealthy options.

Cons

Extremely poor communication from management. Non existent most of time. When they do communicate, you are met w/ lies. Care about profit/numbers at the expense of employee health. Impossible production expectations without enough personnel. Management questions everyone but themselves. Equipment shortage and issues impact production as well. But blame is placed on production staff. Toxic coworkers that will get on the case of new workers for not being robots that operate non-stop. Depressing and loud environment, along w/ possible chemical exposure. Low pay and small raises. HR cares about business needs, not individuals. Stretching required every hour. Optional at first, but then management started enforcing. Computers and systems always slow and having issues. Language barrier. Diversity is great, but this can cause miscommunication w/ those who don't speak good English.
