Pros

Do not have to pay for Health Insurance Great Supply Chain organization - really hits the target well considering no one in manufacturing has a clue

Cons

There are no solid processes what so ever. The schedule is printed on a white board throughout the day and is never close to being accurate. Incredible waste, you would think that after making plates for 60 years, they would have figured out how have more product than waste. There is no control of over inventory, they like to do physical counts each and every day. Questionable OSHA practices - for example they paint machines 20 feet from where they manufacture the plates. There is no ventilation and exhaust is blown into the parking lot. No respect for employees on any level. They are unable to provide clear direction regarding processes, schedule yet blame the workers making a salary of 26K / yr working 7 eights with no OT. To sum it up - Inefficient, redundant processes that provide no value, dirty - there are way too places out there to take a chance at this place, unless of course you are an illegal resident -

Pros

Health Benefits are fully paid by the company.

Cons

Everything else! Owner micromanages & rarely gets all sides of any given situation. Tends to believe & rely on whomever he perceives as in his camp (aka, mostly unqualified “yes” people). Owner is rarely satisfied. Loyalty, dedication, demonstrated knowledgeability & hard work mean nothing to him! There is poor morale & a great deal of backstabbing in the work culture, which accounts for the high turnover of employees & temps.
