Pros

Growing company with a great reputation behind its name. Very innovative and always looking at ways to make process better. Always searching for new talent. Uses business principles and concepts in everything they do. In short, looks great on your resume. They try to take care of the hourly associates.

Cons

Long hours. They change their shifts whenever business needs dictate; but you are at their mercy if they decide to put you on the new shift whether you like it or not. Some of the new talent that's brought in dont have any leadership experience or inter-personal skills. 401K plan is crap. You have to wait years before you can get the full match. No one really looks out for the managers.
