Pension, option to pay for extra benefits, clean, 8 hours work day, weekend shifts, clean work environment. Company stocks at discounted price.

Cons

Shift work, not as many perks as there used to be and not a lot of employee recognition anymore. Have to pay into benefits now, before they were all company paid. Manufacturing jobs are on cement floors. Hard on the body. Lots of Repetitive work.

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.
