Pros

It's a job that you can get easily due to high turnover and keep indefinitely because there is no way they will fire you.

Cons

Everything really: - The management is horrible. - The place is falling apart (literally). - The amount of theft with almost no help from the management is horrifying. - Delayed salaries. - False promises when you achieve production. - Factory set instead of a laboratory set. - Installed mentality of "you have to do it no matter what." - Management cannot control some people in the lab, resulting in total chaos for actual good workers.

Pros

Good group of people in local office.

Cons

Stuck in the past. Unwilling to consider updating methods or procedures. "We've done it this way for 30 years and it has worked." Sales relies upon project engineers to do most of their work for them. When volume of work is slow that becomes the engineers responsibility to go find new clients. Can't reliably pay the most basic of utility bills on time. I've seen the power cut off 2x and the gas this past winter.
