Pros

Quarterly profit sharing, good pay, ( but only due to mandatory 50 hr work week), 40% discount on employee purchase firearms, and full benefits.

Cons

A grueling 10- 11 hr shift monday through friday and sometimes saturday. ..Second shift is from 4:00PM to 2:30AM--Imagine what impact that will have on your personal and family life. Forget your marriage, boyfriend ,girlfriend and kids..because with this schedule your relationships with loved ones will be compromised and damaged. Repetitive, monotonous work, micro managing over-seeer supervisors, ( more like slave drivers). If you leave the production line to go to the restroom you will be questioned...and possibly scolded and written up. They do not reward those with extensive knowledge for firearms. Many of the supervisors will be intimidated by someone with higher than normal knowledge and skills, and thus, hold you back. They place persons with little knowledge of guns into line- lead supervisor roles. There is Unsafe gun handling by inexperienced and under-trained staff. And a blatant crony buddy buddy management and supervisor cartel. You will be snubbed, lied to and held back.
