Pros

Decent benefits, pay, time-off. The schedule's great (four 10 hour shifts). The job is incredibly easy.

Cons

In the small facility that I work in, there is not much opportunity for advancement. We hire from the outside most often. And you can only move up the ladder one rung at time. As a result, you'll be stuck at the same level for years! If you're ambitious like me, it gets old fast. Management is horrible. They just don't know what they're doing and seem not to know how to communicate with their employees.

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
