Pros

Co-workers, good benefits, great 401k. Great travel opportunities if your position allows. Local management promotes a healthy work/life balance. Decent pay, but make sure you get paid what you are worth.

Cons

Layer after later of upper management that does not allow local decisions that need to be made on a day-to-day basis. Layers of management want to be responsible for everything without being accountable for anything. Career advancement moves at a snail's pace. Does not follow through with compensation promises.

Pros

The work is interesting and you learn something new everyday. The job is enjoyable for me at least. Wide range of production jobs for wide range of skills ranging from basic inventory/ cleaning to highly technical . Most production areas have lots and lots of overtime if that's your thing.

Cons

The French can't run a company to save their country (why they sold to GE). Management style is horrible in some areas. Copies the French style of micro management with multiple people to report to. Never sure who is the one that should make a decision. Most production areas have lots and lots of overtime if that's your thing.
