Pros

Minimal need for overtime and fair communication when additional work may be needed for this role.

Cons

Serious restructuring of pay structure is needed for this role. Across the board more assistance and help is needed for the Minnesota branches. We are constantly asking for assistance and help both in resources, training, time, and employees but then there is constantly a question on why targets aren't being met despite us communicating needs. Minimal opportunity for advancement.

Pros

Tremendous opportunity for those willing to seize it, commit, learn and be flexible. Unfortunately today that also seems to require "ability to tolerate abuse."

Cons

Middle management was unable or unwilling to address clear employee performance and professionalism issues at the individual contributor level, allowing internal protection networks to undermined trust, morale, retention and standards.

Pros

Well documented procedures, at least at the corporate level. Salary and benefits pretty much on par with everybody else. Great people to work with. We finally got a GM that can get the site on the right track.

Cons

As soon as there is a downturn in the forecast (big contract not signed). Senior leadership shuts down the whole site.
