Pros

Majority of people are willing to help.

Cons

Retention policy for employees makes zero sense. For some reason upper management and HR will not budge on increasing salaries to keep up with inflation but cry a river about employees leaving. Engineers are not simple to replace even if you get lucky and get an experienced hire it still takes months to a year for them to be effective.

Pros

Flexible work week. As long as you reach 40 hours for the week, doesn't matter when you come/go each day. Food is pretty good.

Cons

Quick growth to P3, but growth after that stagnates/fails to be competitive in salary

Pros

Concern for Safety is a legitimate priority. The work is very process oriented and theres little uncertainty or chaos in the day to day. Theres a formalized way of doing everything. Work-life balance is good for the american standard.

Cons

The company is 100+ years old so the way things get done is over-constrained and very resistant to change. As a result work can be monotonous and Information, while abundant, is extremely difficult to reliably retreive. You will work harder not smarter.
