Pros

Higher ups are interested in listening and understanding problems, people are very friendly. Even the president makes you feel welcome and needed in the company.

Cons

HR doesn't seem to understand some of the general ideas of some of the jobs they're hiring for - makes for confusing interview/difficulties accepting job offer.

Pros

I liked that management staff at the facility. The floor managers were flexible and understanding of current situations. The coworkers are great people to work with. They allows sufficient amount of breaks.

Cons

When I worked there, I was hired to relieve labor constraints because business was picking up. It was very busy in terms of all the orders that needed to be completed. Sometimes there was a lack of communication which caused production woes.
