Pros

Local HQ in Perrysburg has a small-town feel. Great location if you prefer more rural suburbs. Offices have adequate space. The plant jobs house some great, hard-working individuals that tend to truly care about the product they are producing. These plants are typically located in rural areas that maintain the surrounding community.

Cons

What used to be proud staple of Toledo, OH, O-I has become plagued by misguided executive decisions to keep its insignificant share price from falling further as its only product (glass bottles) slowly falls out of consumer favor. Layoffs and outsourcing have become the norm with no transparency from senior management as to what the end goal is. Job security at any level, even high upper management, simply does not exist as the c-suite continues to slash labor costs. As a result, employee morale is incredibly low with most folks concerned about what little jobs exist in the Toledo market. While local Toledo firms continue to expand, O-I seeks to cut and outsource. Career advancement has been stunted due to most middle-management jobs being eliminated. For those looking to start their careers here out of college, I would be VERY cautious.

Pros

The only Pro's are that there are great people to work with at the company, the benefits are good and pay is competitive but in all honestly very similar if not better at other companies of the same caliper in the Toledo metro area (Dana, OC, The Andersons, etc).

Cons

Company as a whole is very short-term focused, GLT and managers fail to look at the big picture, experience is irrelevant to hiring managers. Honestly, my quality of life has improved massively after leaving this company
