Pros

Good pay, work is not hard, more vacation time than most jobs.

Cons

They preach about quality, yet they want you to hit your numbers every day. Therefor causing employees to rush in which drops quality which is the most important thing. They don't supply enough tools to get the job completed in the time they ask. They are trying to make the workplace more diverse with different races and sexualities, but in wanting to have it so diverse they are hiring just anybody off the street whether they are qualified for the job or not just so they can have the diversity. Management has very poor communication with the employees and hold back and lie about a lot of important information. They constantly make up their own rules day to day. They preach about Cardinal One, and say all regions have the same rules, yet each facility has different rules if you talk to employees from other places. It's hard to move up unless your friends with management. They pick friends over people with more job knowledge and qualifications. There is constant overtime everyday. Even if everyone works hard together to get off a little early, they still force you to stay and do other shifts work. By doing so, it usually ends up causing overtime when you could have gotten out 45min early. Then upper management gets mad that we're not under 9% overtime. Benefits are not that good. They try to give write-ups over anything. You would have to work 3-4 years just to get a dollar raise.

Pros

Good benefits and 401k matching

Cons

The company has a serious problem with advancing people via nepotism. They don't advertise open positions and allow interested people to apply and interview, they just hire from within by advancing the select few that have been deemed worthy from on high. The work environment is very hostile, somewhat based on being bullied by the corporate center elite.
