Pros

My background matches. The industry has downsized considerably. I am not sure if I am lucky or unlucky to still be in the industry.

Cons

Pay structure reduced. Raises are no longer added to base; it is a one-time payment. Pensions are frozen for salary employees, not hourly. Certain salary pensions were allowed to go to government administration with drastic reductions. 401(k)s are a fine alternative, but employer contributions were much lower during the days of pension accrual.

Advice to Management

Salary workforce will be mobile as economy picks up. There's no incentive for longevity.
