Pros

When I first started we made 70 hours a week. It was great at first to make money

Cons

A female was hired to do the same work but was the only one allowed to sit in the office majority of every shift and do nothing when all the other employees were working in the heat all day long. After being addressed by all other workers and still allowed it created an issue. Life revolves around work. 60 hours a week of manual labor takes a toll with no end in sight. But you rely on overtime to pay the bills.

Pros

Good exposure to a large, complex organization with cross-functional collaboration. Opportunities to take on responsibility and learn quickly if you are proactive. Some strong internal frameworks and experienced individuals to learn from. Visibility across different teams and business units.

Cons

Lack of standardized processes creates unnecessary inefficiencies and rework. Too much reliance on individual knowledge instead of scalable systems. Cross-team communication is often reactive rather than coordinated, which slows execution. Roles and ownership are frequently unclear, leading to misalignment and finger-pointing. Tools exist but are not fully implemented or consistently used, resulting in avoidable manual work.
