Pros

Very flexible schedule. Quite lenient. Comfortable.

Cons

Dog eat dog in every aspect of the company. Tyrant type supervising. About 4-5 years ago when the economy plumited, they cut everyone's pay in 5% incriments, which lead to a total of a 15% decrease in pay... and to this day they have no intentions of giving that money back. They dont have any kind of incentives. It's a shame beacause the owners and "higher ups" in the owners "click" are payed a very healthy salary while the rest of the company scrambles to feed their family. Why is this so bad? Beause it happened to everyone, including but not limited to the lot of people that have been dedicated to this company for 20+ years so it's hard to leave a company after you've been there that long and try so hard to be hopeful that they will catch up with the rest of the country. We are one of the few companies left that are still using the "economy" excuse.

Pros

I can't think of a single one.

Cons

The pay is horrible. $14.50 an hour. No employer match on 401k. They even stole our 401k money for a quarter and said it was a computer glitch. Gave money back plus 10 percent but they still stole it. If you steal my car with a empty tank of gas but return it 3 months later with a full tank, you still stole my car. The equipment is falling apart. Management at every level is in over there heads, don't have a clue. They don't pay on Fridays, no direct deposit. Pay is on Saturday, Monday, or Tuesday. You never know. This place is a joke.
