Pros

Paycheck. Those who are not upper management are wonderful people to work with.

Cons

The CEOs wife (who creates fake job titles for herself and sits on the executive board) has ruined any morale that employees used to have. They have trouble holding on to college recruits because of the horrible atmosphere she has created. She'll rub your face in her money any chance she gets and she goes on firing rampages for no reason which unfortunately she can do since you're an "at will" employee. Overall she's a horrible human being who uses fear to "manage". The emotional toll she puts you through of questioning every day you go to work if you're still going to have a job at the end of the day is not worth it. She also fires one sales trainee every year as a scare tactic to the others. Talk to people who have been there for many many years and ask them what they think of NIBCO and the common response is "... It's not what it used to be" and it's because of her and all the power she's been given just for being married to the CEO. If not being miserable and job security are of importance to you and you have an opportunity to work at corporate, I would highly suggest not taking the position.

Pros

I met a few great people there and got a pay check for a while.

Cons

Probably one of the worst jobs I've had. Cooperate doesn't care about you, HR only hires people related to them for the more sought after roles. The plant manager throws tantrums and refuses to handle issues. Most of Management is either too scared or too lazy to help with anything.
