Pros

Benefits, pay, experience gained, good brand name, well known company

Cons

Upper management has a brute force mentality - no finesse at all. I don't even think they care. Instead of supporting management with hard facts, engineers are wielding influence with data and flawed logic. Company has gone beyond frugal - now they are just plain cheap, and focus on lowest cost rather than the best management tools/techniques. Result is that upper management is on a constant witch hunt. Too many "yes men". Everyone is afraid to tell the Emperors (of which there are many) that they have no clothes.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
