Pros

Great individual contributors, management (see cons). Somewhat decent time off benefits, allow carry over from year to year.

Cons

People are promoted based on relationship with manager, not work ethic or skill sets that bring into the work place. Best way to move up with play golf, fish, or hit the bar with management. 90% of management is clueless as to what products/sizes we make, how they're manufactured and the day in & out troubles of hourly & salaried employees. Will just hide behind an office door in conference calls until 5PM. Pay is NOT competitive for similar positions in the area. HR at Glens Falls operations is racist, go ahead look at all the recent hires in HR @ GFO if you want the data.
