Pros

Great time off, great 401 k match, decent health insurance, goood manuracturing training program.

Cons

Terrible management, constant indecision, too much in the way of politics, good old boy network is in place with a friends of upper management filling all the middle management positions. People are very aggressive and a lot of the time for no good reason. If you are an easy going person, this is not the place for you. Management will constantly re-examine their decisions, and you will be asked to drop everything to take care of the newest top priority to the point where it will become a running joke. Management cares more about protecting their personal interests as opposed to doing what is best for the company.
