Pros

Compensation, promotions, and company values. New Management seems to have a good grasp on the future plans for the plant, and constantly thinks of ways to improve the plant to help assist the work-family life balance.

Cons

Work-life Balance, too many bad habits to break. People tend to keep their jobs longer than they should, and it can be identified early on someone does not fit, yet nothing is done to prevent them from getting hired on full-time, or get rid of people who cause issues.

Pros

Decent base pay and fast paced work makes the days go by quickly. Lately the company has been actually investing in their new product lines ever since Joakim became our CEO.

Cons

The compensation is lacking. No bonuses whatsoever for senior level engineers even when they're recognized as a key contributor on the team. We are given our 401k match on March 1st to cover the previous year's matches so you lose out on a lot of the year's market gains. The healthcare coverage is mediocre at best for a fortune 500 company. The raises are still given like it's 2018; 3% is considered a "good" merit increase. This is due to the "forced distribution" merit increase system where only "so many" people can receives "above expectations" raises.
