Pros

You can rely on your check being in the bank every 2 weeks

Cons

First let me start by saying that i have been a long time employee at this location. It was at one time one of the best companies and location to work for. Our former President Tim Brown got promoted and new President former CFO Thomas Crytser took over it has gone down hill. The company now is driven about profits and expenses at the cost of employess and its customers. We negelict customer service to save a buck. Employee benifits (vacations, health care bonuses..etc) have been cut down to nothing. There is no gratitude for the work you do but rather what can you do for me tomorrow. If they can fire you to save expenses they will. I would never advise any one to work here..

Pros

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Cons

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
