Pros
This company is a little more stable from layoffs than most. No union at certain plants which could be a pro or con.
Cons
Mediocre treatment of employees at best, they do the bare minimum to stay under the radar. Nepotism is rampant in the workplace, you have to be good friends or family with management to move up. If they don’t like you for any reason, they’ll “find” ways to get rid of you. You have to fake it to make it here which has turned into a very toxic work environment. No profit sharing. No bonuses for hourly employees. Meeting and exceeding production goals is rewarded with pizza parties when the company is profitting billions. Silly performance reviews with subjects like “clock watching” but they don’t want you clocking in early, staying late or taking too long a break and want you going to break at specific times which force you to keep an eye on the clock. An easy way for them to give you bad reviews to have documentation of “poor work performance” which hurt your chances for promotion and make it easier to fire you if the need arises for them. If you complain about anything they will investigate themselves much like a corrupt police department and find they did nothing wrong. They will retaliate tactfully as to not get in trouble. Department of Labor won’t help as going up against a multi billion dollar corporation isn’t worth their time. You are not rewarded for going above and beyond, in fact it is often ridiculed and looked down upon. They want you to almost be a robot. Annual pay increases are meager, only enough to cover increased medical premiums, nothing more for inflation and or cost of living. Literally you will get a 2.5% annual pay increase and your premium increases 2.5%.
