Pros

Opportunities to change your position, department or division. Most of the colleagues are great professionals. Focus on innovation and long-term mindset. Upper management with a clear view about the future and willing to make brave decisions. Salary higher than average in industry.

Cons

50% of middle management is really incompetent, don't live by the values and are there just for the money or the status. Sneaky people that have learn to survive. Politics and networking are way more important than performance or dedication. Extremely slow processes. Disproportional operative workload even in strategic positions.

Pros

Benefits - Very competitive, some of the best I've ever had. Pay - Spec Techs top out in the lower 40's. The pay is competitive for sure. Overtime - There is a ton of OT available if you want it. I am averaging over 400 hours a year. Upper Management - The Plant Management is amazing. Anytime I have had an issue make it's way up to them, only twice, it was resolved in a matter of days.

Cons

Middle Management - Way too many "trying to move uppers", willing to do ANYTHING to do so.
