Pros

The pay is good and you get holidays off to spend with your families.

Cons

when asked to work overtime there is no management there in case you have problems with your machine or you get hurt. When you are having problems with your machine a floor person comes to watch you run it if they don't think that it is serious enough they won't write up your machine to have it looked at by a maintance person. In fact they tell you to keep running it until it really breaks down. To me it would be smarter to get someone over there to look at it so maybe you wouldn't have alot of down time.

Pros

My immediate supervisors were great. My teams were amazing. Even the temporary staff we hired for the season were usually pretty awesome. 11 paid holidays. 3 weeks vacation after 5 years... A week PTO .. that's 31 work days as paid time off! And if you schedule it right during holidays you could be off for 3 weeks and only use a week vacation 😂

Cons

Upper Management took the lean manufacturing process too far. Six Sigma processes have their place and can be beneficial when applied properly. However when it came to redistribution of responsibility and telling employees they would now be responsible for not only A, B, C, but L, M,N, O and Z as well with no increase in pay or benefits. They also expected everyone to not only accept their new responsibilities but did not allow for any additional time in the day to complete the extra work. I thought that's taking it a bit too far.
