Competitive pay, culture, support from other team members. Medical benefits, work from home options, I had surgery and was out for three weeks. While in the hospital I received flowers and a nice card and received nothing but support in during my recovery.
Cons
Politics, but that is anywhere I have worked.

Cons
The company is unionized, so there are many roadblocks to implementing processes and holding people accountable.
When you speak up about gaps, you get crucified and into trouble.
Production lags with new management.
Training lacks pretty bad
The culture has changed over the years; no one cared about Barc's nine principles. That is what people use to say that there is nothing wrong with the company—not true.
ISO documentation is lacking; I don't know how we pass.
It is hard to promote yourself in a specific role or in other roles. All office positions are hybrid, which means that work-life balance is good.
lean is lacking, but then again there's no accountability.
