Pay and Benefits
May 12, 2023 - Manufacturing Associate in Anna, OHRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Kelly has just increased starting pay. They offer a generous benefits package with perks on meals and travel. The HR staff has been very accessible and pleasant. There is a nice $3000 sign on bonus at 3 and 6 months of work. There are attendance bonuses and a MSP program, which allows you more money after some time.
Cons
After 6 months, you don't get another bonus. You lose out on more lucrative performance bonuses and profit sharing by working as a contingent and not an associate. Health care is costly under Kelly's plan. Honda has better benefits as a whole.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We wish you much success in your career.
