Pros

They offer competitive pay and good benefits.

Cons

They lie about their employment intentions and things such as seasonal lay off. I was told that we were having a "seasonal layoff," and that I would be eligible for unemployment for my normal pay rate for 40 hours per week. I was told I would keep my benefits. I was told I would receive a letter in the mail to turn in with my unemployment application stating that I would be returning to work after the "off season." A week later, I received a letter in the mail saying my employment was terminated due to "ongoing attendance issues." During my time of employment, I showed up for every shift, on time. There was no written notice of the seasonal layoff, only verbal. I'm sure they did that with the intention of leaving no paper trail, and having on the record that I failed to show up for my shift for several days in a row to avoid being accused of wrongful termination and having to continue to provide benefits. They are unethical. Oh, and the racism. I heard one member of management say "we dont hire ni**ers here."

Pros

Laid back, a lot of intelligence on the floor with experience, always 50 hour work week 10 hours a day(mandatory) and almost always Saturday work if you want it 5-7 hours(never mandatory), no theft or shady people. Everyone on the floor gets along even when personalities sometimes clash we look out for one another. If you even had an appointment you’re free to go they never hold that against you. Call off you get docked a vacation day. But I can’t express on this note how good they do treat us when it comes to taking care of things outside of work it’s a massive and respected perk we all appreciate from the company when you don’t have a single worry if you have a drs or dentist appointment or have to get the kid or family member to a appointment or if you just happen to have to leave work early, they don’t punish you and it makes us work harder for them Time start 5-3:30pm 15 min break at 9, 30 min lunch at 12

Cons

Micro managed by the foreman, upper leadership is chaos —- way to many cooks in the kitchen. Shop foreman, shop supervisor, shop manager, all basically the same job but it’s a endless battle between them. Nepotism is the Kinsley way. It is sort of hilarious after you figure out how incestuous the place is. Everyone has some sort of tie to everyone in the upper crust of “leadership” aka get my buddy a great paycheck
