Pros

There are many challenges and opportunities for improvement. There are some good managers and great people to work with that are really trying to do a good job.

Cons

Management plays lip service to change but only if it doesn't challenge their egos. You are a shoe-in for a job if you're a buddy, neighbor, child of a friend or family member. Office people are afraid to make changes in case it doesn't work. If you tick off management, you loose your job. There is a ton of finger pointing when problems happen rather than trying to find ways to fix them. Make enemies (which isn't hard if you're not a buddy) and you loose your job. To do well you need to be a guy who is in to hunting, fishing and buddy up to the CEO. They talk about culture change but don't really want to do it. Management thinks that people will stay for food trucks and nice parties. Culture is making your employees feel like they have skin in the game and can make a difference.

Pros

Good pay and Good hours. there is once every 3 mos an opportunity to receive up to but not exceeding 300 dollars if production goals are met without any defecits. Not much interaction with senior management except once a month mandatory meetings

Cons

I was told i would be given the chance to learn on the forklift. I asked to do so, they chose someone who had experience. Didn't bother to train. Didn't offer it any other way. Didn't consider me at all. The benefits aside form health and such, pizza, maybe two slices if you're lucky, donut day, and other goofy things, but no real bonuses. For the 8 months i worked here I was sexually harassed by a female coworker, according to the description of sexual harassment, but as a guy I was able to deal with it. I repeat the same thing to her once and she goes to HR about it. I take full accountability for my part in it. I tell HR about some of the things she has said, and they just say they'll look into it. But just as any other company the first to report is the victim and it doesn't matter the rest. But this can be for any company. This was just my experience. Of course I was let go. She still works there Not much interaction with senior management except once a month mandatory meetings During my first 6 months there we were on mandatory overtime because the big contract pulled out of the production to test a new blend, prior to my coming and then resumed and demanded that we catch up to the lost time the contract caused.
