Pros

Great values and principles. If you're type A, you'll find like-minded people. It has lots of great, dedicated people working in a team atmosphere. Highly competitive, but rewarding. Profit sharing increases the longer you work there.

Cons

It is an extremely demanding company. Very stressful environment. Titles are everything, so unless you are at a senior level, you better know your place and don't challenge management. If you are native to Minneapolis and don't choose to transfer to the GO, good luck. You will be treated differently. Little room for advancement in a field office. Millenials are valued for their new thought leadership and are often hired after completing internships. Administrators are consistently treated like dispensible, second class citizens.

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
