Pros

Offers flexitime, salaries are released promptly, medical and other benefits even during probation period, silent work environment, employees can practice their religion freely

Cons

Job and salary is not commensurate to capability. Either you are overwhelmed with tasks for 3 people or you are doing the same simplest task over again, daily, without opportunity of expanding your functions.

Pros

About 10-15 years ago it was first York then Johnson controls took over...Was a great company and great management team. Helped you to advance. Pay was good. Cared about their employees.

Cons

Big changes going on and many layoffs especially in Northeast. Old and new employees beware! Start looking and interviewing so you won't be caught with your pants down like some of us did! No loyalty...you are just a name with a dollar amount next to it. Companies beware...Will get rid of knowledgeable experienced employees and hires apprentices to save money but overcharges you for the job.
