Vantaggi
The pay was quite decent if you've been on for a long time. Newer employees are getting the shaft, as they're left on contract for longer and longer terms. Also, the benefits were nice, but I'm not sure how that is panning out in the new world of economic turmoil. I really enjoyed and fully used the dental plan. They also have a 3% pension plan.
Svantaggi
Very boring, stagnant work. As a machine operator you generally feel, and likely are, very unappreciated. It is no secret that you can be replaced by anyone. New workers are left on contract far too long. This saves the company money by prolonging the time before they get paid "piece work" and benefits. As it is primarily dealing with auto parts, layoffs are frequent and sudden.
