Pros

REsonable benefit package, and if you are really good then chance of quick promotion. IF you actually get to go on an external training course then they are quite good.

Cons

Long hours. Unrealistic expectations. Not right management help. Not right training. No proper handovers. Stressful. Sometimes they have a tendancy to either over-promote a kiss-ass or leave a position vacant for a long time because of their "only recruit from within" policy. Not enough people in the plant - one person leaves or gets sick and the whole thing starts to unravel.

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
