Pros

- Flexible hours... well, they used to be. - Cool mission: who doesn't want to be empowered as a woman? - Neat set of skills to pick up on the manufacturing floor.

Cons

- Loss of flexibility with scheduling. - The mission only extends as far as the social media posts--it doesn't actually mean anything for the people who work there. - no appreciation, acknowledgment or feedback on the job you do. - you're just a cog in the wheel of someone else's dream.

Pros

As a milspouse I work remotely. Moving every 2-3 years is the milspouse life and I have been able to keep my job after 2 moves. If I did not work remotely I would be looking for a new job every time we move. It also gave me an opportunity to get back in the career field my degree is in.

Cons

Working remotely can feel a bit isolating, but the pros of remote work far out weigh the cons.

Pros

Small company. Some remote work opportunities (independent contractor type). Decent pay for entry-level manufacturing warehouse. A lot of great hourly employees work here. The Director of Facility Operations of the facility is professional, passionate, and generous. Growth potential for those who are open-minded and willing to work aggressively for advancement. Personal time off begins accruing immediately and is able to taken as soon as it's earned. A big plus to work for a company whose co-founders have such a unique and brilliant vision for the future of the company. There is also a 401(k) plan.

Cons

Being a small company most people have multiple roll's and things can become confusing or frustrating. A large portion of the companies employees do work remotely, and it is sometimes very difficult to coordinate certain activities. Schedules can change frequently and randomly with overtime becoming mandatory with little notice. There are no health benefits currently offered. Sometimes confusing and contradictory direction given from executive suite.
