Pros
great experience working along side a few great ppl, personality and professional wise, in a large format print production facility. Opportunity to learn different facets and processes ranging from small to large format printing and digital media, to fabrication and manufacturing from start to finish.
Cons
I have to agree with a lot of the negativity surrounding this company and its poor reviews and rating. Within the first 2 weeks of my employment, close to 18 employees had gotten laid off and shortly after some ppl who were with the company for over 15 years, even 20+ were submitting their resignation papers, and a little before my first what was supposed to be employee review after 90 days, my hiring manager leaves the company on short notice. I was told that salary personnel are subject to raises often and bonuses, but THIS IS JUST NOT TRUE AT ALL! The CEO did away with all overtime for hourly employees, and as a manager you are expected to put in minimum 12hr shifts and make sure you are available to work weekends at all times. The work/life balance does NOT exist. They demand you put the company first, your personal life will suffer drastically as you will come to find out you will not have one. Unfortunately for me, I could not perform within my role in which I was originally hired to do as Project Manager. I had to be available and fill every void they had left because most of the staff either quit or got laid off. There isn’t anybody left to do the work and despite knowing they are short staffed, they refuse to hire replacements and if at all they will hire cheap and under-qualified. They expect the managers to now work even harder, longer hours in light of this problem with no end in sight.
