Pros

Good quality product. Good benefits, but does not outweigh the bad situation.

Cons

The most unsafe, poorly lit, unkempt, unorganized, and poorly maintained facility I have ever seen. Change is very slow, most likely due to the bare-bones staffing, which is hard to retain due to the low pay. Good people are used until they are used up. Total lack of work-life balance, hypocritical upper management, and nepotism runs rampant. Asking questions or working on changes that affect family members can get you in deep trouble. The labor workforce is enthusiastic and engaged, but I feel sorry for those that think it is the greatest job in the world when there are workplaces that are so much better. Good luck.

Pros

2 2 3 schedule Ability to move up if you’re constantly pushing for it Majority of management worked their way up through the company

Cons

Promotion process goes through corporate office, not within the plant Terrible turnover rate due to long shifts Tends to promote those who are not ready for supervisory roles, mainly those who are friends with upper management Those in supervisory roles tend to lack motivation to train others which leads to operators having to go above and beyond to try and learn more
