Pros

Hands down some of the best people, great co-workers. Educational assistance is definitely a bonus. Fast paced and always busy.

Cons

Turn-over and reorganizational strategies over the last several years has had a significant impact. Trending like many other companies and struggling as they try to manage operations from dashboards, desks, and software. Kick off new initiatives, unable to sustain, while production continues to struggle with obstacles everyday.

Pros

Compensation is great People are awesome Lots of perks like educational reimbursement and volunteer work Lots of focus on safety, very few incidents HSA and company match benefits Upper management is wonderful and engaging

Cons

Work/Life Balance gets a one star rating Vehemently against remote and hybrid work. Says that working in the office is vital to creating relationships even though we all stay in our cubicles and all of the meetings are on Teams Middle management seems checked out Lots of peer pressure to work in office even when sick. Nobody is asked to go home if they come in hacking up a lung. Very few feel like they have the freedom and ability to take advantage of their vacation time. Over working yourself is seen as a value here, but isn't recognized as going above and beyond. It's an expectation. Seasonal whiplash - mandatory OT in the summer months, followed by hours possibly getting cut back in the winter months
