Pros

• Stable manufacturing company, nothing changes. • If you're a white male you'll go far at this company. • Good place to coast until retirement. • Free leftover food at least once a week. • Convenient location in the suburbs. • If you are in good with management you can be incompetent at your job. • Quarterly bonuses in addition to base salary, if goals are met. • Privately held company, not beholden to stockholders, just the family's wishes. • Management is willing to burn the place down to get what they want!

Cons

• Women, minorities, the glass ceiling is low, know your place. • Very high turnover, though they won't admit it. • A lot of jobs being turned over to consultants and off-shore outsourcing. • Innovative thinkers need not apply, just maintain the status quo. • The politics are like being in high-school all over again, very bad for morale. • "Core values" only apply to the company's benefit, not yours. • Legacy employees run the show, don't cross them or they will make your life miserable. • Unless you start at the very bottom there is no room for advancement. • Constant political battle with subsidiaries and corporate, hard to tell who is running the business at times. • Very bad work-life balance. Always seems to be some after-hours fire to put out.
