Pros

9/80 schedule is awesome and the manufacturing environment is very clean. The company is growing as are the bonus checks. My supervisor is generally a good person who I feel comfortable with talking to about anything. Being in manufacturing for a while, this is the first company that has listened to me and made sure to follow up with me in regards to concerns I have had. I don't do the same thing everyday and that's also nice. Most of the people I work with are fantastic and very helpful.

Cons

The wages are lower than other places I have worked. I have moved quickly up "associate levels" because I am ambitious so that's helped. There are a few people here that are miserable and blame everyone for everything because that's how they entertain themselves, but most of us either don't bother with them or ignore them, but they are here...like everywhere else I've worked. I work in JSF and there are just two miserable women that just have nasty things to say 24/7 no matter how much people have tried to work with them. Everyone else in JSF is awesome and my PTA is also pretty great.

Pros

Every other Friday off. 9/80 Good health insurance but, expensive when compared to the low wages they pay.

Cons

Management and production relationship are severely strained. Management does not listen to their employees concerns. Mismanagement leading to stock outs which prevents work from being done and shipped on time. Mandatory overtime due to mismanagement. Nepotism and favoritism run rampant in that place. If you’re not a close friend or relative, forget it. At or below poverty wages. No room for growth potential with this company. Dead end job. Once you hit a certain level you’re lucky to get a thirty cent raise once a year. Bells for starting times, breaks, lunches and end of shift. Belittling management. This company will wear you down until you don’t recognize the person you used to be.
