Pros

If you like to stand around and get paid bare minimum for it this is for you No pressure to do your job. Supervision has no power so do what you want and get away with it.

Cons

Zero safety culture. Didn't see a safety person in 5 months working there. They got new immigrants to the country working minimum wage jobs that they are stuck in. The don't speak any English and can't go anywhere else. They are there to work towards permanent residency status. They have they workers signing off on daily job hazard analysis when they can't read or write or speak English. All they can say in English is "speak to supervisor" in the most broken English speech. This place is an accident waiting to happen. Red tape is never to be crossed anywhere I've ever worked. Not this place. I see heavy lifts going on and no tape. Or tape is up and workers still in the danger zone and under suspended loads. Safety is a joke.

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.
