Vantaggi
Pretty good pay, nice people, opportunities for advancement if someone carries you. Opportunities for international work. Best of both worlds: big company resources, small company cross-functionality and experience.
Svantaggi
Few opportunities for career growth unless you are ex-military and have supply chain experience. The company is in love with ex-military personnel for some reason regardless of how poorly they perform, NA sales and performance shows this. Manufacturing safety is a recent escalating problem. In an effort to cut costs low experience or unqualified supervisors are being hired and in turn number of incidents have gone up. Same is true for operators and technicians, who are hired from the entry level general population vs workers that have technical experience (and require a higher pay). This also results in huge turnaround in manufacturing and any advanced technical procedures are quickly lost.
