Never 2 days the same at the factory...
Pros: The company is there and you can make of it what you will. I have been here nearly 20 years, but have had 4 very different careers, all linking in, but same company. It give you a great experience, and you should never be bored here. There is always a new challenge ready for the taking.
I have seen the company really take care of people who have had serious personal challenges, there are development schemes to help the ambitious drive their career, just to mention two great support mechanisms in the company.
Cons: Challenges, unless you are in front line sales and being actively supported by people further up the greasy pole, you will never get rich here. Bonuses can be better, as can remuneration. This year, UK made the numbers, but as US didn't, no bonus.  Bah Humbug!  Not that long ago when things were the other way round, US got the bonus, but UK didn't...
