Pros

Their checks don't bounce on payday, so there's that I guess.

Cons

Management sets up employees to fail so they don't have to pay them competitive wages. Corporate turns a deaf ear to complaints.

Pros

Lots of overtime. They will let you work as much as you want.

Cons

Mandatory 10 hour days year around. Only one 30 minute unpaid break. Old equipment many of the the forklifts are over 15 years old with over 10,000 hours on them. As of this review all the forklifts were open cabs all the work is done outside. management keeps saying new forklifts are comping this has been going on for 3 months now. Ever manger is ethier incompetent or a treats anyone below them with no respect. The yard staff and drivers are second class citizen compared to the sales staff.

Pros

As much time as you could want Not back breaking work Holidays and weekends off Holiday Pay If morning shift, your day ends at 3:30

Cons

Low pay. Not much responsibility Lazy workers. Repetitive work Low pay. Not the right grinders for glass. No one cleans the machines. The Assistant supervisor sends the glass to the oven, but in the wrong order, mixing everything up a lot. Most of the women dress inappropriately, like they're going to the club. Did I mention low pay?
