Pros

Competitive salary with good benefits

Cons

Culture of micromanagement with a highly political atmosphere. It's sometimes difficult to make improvement efforts due to hoops you have to jump through to get things done. There's an atmosphere that you can't necessarily voice concerns about improvements needed in the organization because it may make someone in management look bad.

Pros

Teamwork, the crew , good pay,

Cons

Long hours, forced 12hour shifts with no lunch break and over time, average week is 52 to 60 hours , short staffed regularly, management team not engaged on floor, managers with poor attitudes, no breaks. Promotions are based off of favoritism you will get the interview but they already know who they picked.
