I’d give it negative stars if it would let me

Pros

At least it’s *somewhat* clean. The owner seems real nice.

Cons

If there is absolutely nothing left to do, then they expect you to literally sweep what’s already been swept five times, count screws, and god forbid you say you’ve done anything. You’ll get an ear full 95% of the time 10 hour days Management will talk down to you, saying it’s your fault that you work 10 hour days If you’ve been absent and have a doctors note then it really doesn’t matter because they still try and argue with you over it. If the manager is in a good mood, great. But if they’re in a bad mood they would be extremely rude to everyone, talk down to you. Honestly if they were in a bad mood and they had a business deal going, they would not make any deal. Because that’s how the manager works. Like a spoiled 5 year old. Cheap tools Cheap supplies Butchers anything they can to make a sell even if it means it breaking down for the customer in a couple months. Generally unfair to the workers on the floor. They used to have 3 15 minute breaks but cut it down to 2 10, and on 10 hour days (everyday) it really takes a lot out of you. Low pay. Prepare to work saturdays.

Toxic owners

Pros

Clean factory and professional appearance. Superior product.

Cons

The family owners have created a very toxic work place. They demean the employees and have a strangle hold on making any updates or upgrades to anything . It has gotten worse year over year and we have many people leaving or looking to leave. The job market is too strong to put up with these owners. On top of the poor morale due to constant fear of doing something wrong they just don't have a clue how to create a positive work place.
