    Mostly Satisfied - Hard Worker

    Jan 18, 2023 - Production Specialist 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    12 hour days and 3-4 day work week When you are off you are truly off. No phone calls, texts, or e-mails Gym on site. Extra break time. Volunteer opportunities in community, but not available for each shift as it’s usually on Saturdays. Job is easy - once you can handle 12 hours on your feet. Right shoes are key.

    Cons

    PTO time is not much to start. They make up for it by earning PTO by working holidays. (This will be the reason I leave). Many different “managers” and “leads”, but no one is truly held accountable. Difficult conversations don’t happen with employees that aren’t doing well or improving. Lots of talk behind their back by everyone - management included. So you are constantly worried if they are saying things about you also. I’d rather know what I’m doing to improve then actually be able to improve.

    Long Days

    Jul 25, 2022 - Production Specialist 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Decent starting pay, plenty of overtime, above average amenities such as a gym, game room, multiple eating and break areas, computers with internet access, full menu/gourmet cafeteria running 7 days a week, benefits, 401k, opportunities for advancement and internal engineering programs. Breaks every 2 hours typically, total of 2 hours worth of break time (1hr lunch, 2-30 min breaks). Usually a consistent raise every 6 months, bonus’s, and yearly bonus’s.

    Cons

    Warm Full body clean room suit (can get very warm) long days (12 hours, plus drive time my day would be about 14 hours of work related things). They never close, even on snow days they’ll try to get everyone to come in…..even if it’s not entirely safe. Some areas lack in professional management, and don’t realize what goes on in the fab. They rather take what the leads say happens as 100% true. So if your lead doesn’t like you, good luck getting a good review.
