Pros

There is not alot of positive feedback to say about this company. I've worked there for 2 years and my experience throughout my 2 year term was a nightmare, from management to the work environment itself. Everyone that's working for this company is just here to collect a paycheck. They dont take pride in what they do, the morale is low. It is a dreadful 8hours per day doing robotic work.

Cons

You have managers that does not know how to speak English. Most of the managers are Chinese that seems like they came from China a year ago. When talking to them, i feel like I'm in an ESL class. These managers are very closed minded, your opinion does not count. Being under a Chinese manager feels like your in a cummunist state, they are tyrants and slave drivers. It is a dead end job. the turn over ratio is really high, you see people come and go all the time. I am glad I left. For future employees or applicants, read all the reviews for this company before you apply it will save you alot of time and headaches. believe me unless you're really desperate for a job. it's a job that people pass over and it is the only choice because you have to make ends meet.

Pros

Paychecks come on time, they have a decent rep in the ceramic packaging world. I worked with some wonderful people.

Cons

This is not a sales job, your are managing accounts with no incentive. QA issues non stop, legal issues, payment, anything and everything comes back on "sales". Every day was a new fire that always felt like preparing for a deposition where each employee starts pointing fingers at one another. Horrible moral. Depends heavily on your direct management. I'll just say that I had emailed some of the issues i was having to my manager (something I've never had to do my entire career) and nothing changed, except that they had logged into my email and deleted it so there was no record. It was not a good situation.
