Pros

My co-workers were very friendly and helpful. There was definitely a sense of camaraderie and a welcoming feeling. Supervisors were willing to work with the employees regarding schedule or job issues. Birthdays and landmark anniversaries were treated in a jovial manner making it a fun environment and boosting morale. I was at the company for nearly 8 years and didn't want to leave.

Cons

Communication wasn't a strong point. Neither was training. A few programs and processes we had to learn on the fly while we were doing it. If there was a training session, it wasn't conducted very efficiently so when it was over, people were just as confused. Sadly these days, the company isn't doing too well due to poor business ethics from the top.
