Pros

............ ...... It's a paycheck.

Cons

Forced to work mandatory overtime. Raises get skipped yearly. Upper management does not care about anything but themselves. Very hard to use vacation time. Only allow 3 people off per area. Request need to be put in 9 months in advance in order to get a day off. Once in area you are not allowed to move. The require degrees to advance. An art degree is worth more then 20 years of experience.

Pros

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Cons

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Pros

Met some good people while there that are still friends.

Cons

Extremely difficult to suggest changes and being taken seriously. Benchmark is stuck on its hiring process. Where a piece of paper is worth more than experience.
