Similar to hell with less people

Pros

The benefits are ok, they used to be a lot better. Over the years the company continues to chip away at them.

Cons

So many bad experiences with this place. A decade ago, it was a great place to work but now it's a sh!t show. The only way to move up in the company is to be bad at your current position. The bad employees are shifted from department to department every 2 years. The good ones that work hard are left in the same position without a promotion forever. The management style at this facility is the biggest problem. Plant managers are changed out every couple of years and the directors run around like children. Expect to be asked to do work for those that are incapable and have your vacation requests be denied by your manager. The company also cares more about training you to be diverse and inclusive than managing production time or being an effective leader. It's probably the last place in Waco you want to work at. It's better to be at Refresco or Mars where the workload is less, and the people are happier. Walking around this place you see so many depressed people not to mention the ruined marriages.

Zero flexibility to work remote

Pros

Good benefits, decent pay, ok culture

Cons

IT has twisted the hybrid work program, telling employees they have to "make up" days if they need to flex and be remote for a day. Not enforced across but only in pockets of hateful, petty, managers. Worst execution of hybrid plan ever. Lies about allowing flexibility, in certain pockets there is none. Awful leadership in IT Ops.
