Pros

Job Security is typically good. If you live in the Canton Ohio area there are plenty of opportunities for advancement within the company.

Cons

If you work at a satellite facility, advancement typically only comes with relocation. They prefer to look around Timken and bring in talent rather than promote from within the same facility.
