Pros

Benefits are nice, including good insurance, paid holidays, and opportunity for overtime at time-and-a-half (salary is closer to 1.5x base pay). Wealth of employee experience, many 15 years and more with the company. The manufacturing industry and particularly the aerospace and defense sector are relatively stable.

Cons

Management team is somewhat dysfunctional, and generally rather inexperienced in comparison with non-management employees. Very outdated equipment used in production (welding equipment in use from the 1940's). Too many chiefs, not enough indians.

Potential for long-term career and some possibility for career advancement. Good people.

Bare minimum time off and benefits (1 week PTO your first year and 2 for your first 5 years). Uncompetitive base pay and weak raises.
