Pros

Christmas party, barbecue in back of factory occasionally. Relaxed work environment. Friendly Co-workers. Cool product, good part of town to work in. not bad for an early career job.

Cons

Tough to keep up. No opportunities for advancement. Very low pay for technical staff. Hazardous/dirty/disorganized work environment. Work is often re-prioritized multiple times over without allowing completion or concentration. Interruptions are endless.
