Pros

Good pay, fixed schedule, depending on area or product, loads of over time

Cons

A lot of pressure from line leads, initial temporary contract can be extended a few times before they offer a permanent one. On a temporary contract employee is not allowed to miss any days and sick days still count as absence. I found they are not understanding towards that, had someone close pass away and they still have me a strike 1 for not coming in. They have a three strike system and don’t tolerate tardiness. Also for your breaks you have to come back early to gown up and wash your hands, as you have to be in your station exactly at the end of break, I was given out for leaving 2 minutes before hand as I need to go to the toilet. So over all very strict and repetitive work

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
