Pros

good benefit Safety focus Good industry (transportation)

Cons

mandatory 10 to 16 hours week overtime. 5 am start time very strict on the clock in time (no more than 5 min before and can't clock in one min late without it being caused as a late) Understaffed manager. mine handle 3 departments. Can't bring in needed tools and good luck waiting to get them to order. Parts problems. be prepared to hustle and then do boring work while you wait for the next shipment. If you don't make it two years they require the sign-on bonus back.

Pros

Unlimited paid time off yearly.

Cons

Site leader at the Erie site. Indecisiveness by upper management. Unrealistic expectations. No repercussions for bad employees. Good employees get abused, verbally and by being given excessive workload. Salary teams are short staffed and site leader won’t allow new hires. The union - no explanation needed.
