Pros

Down to earth people. Management has high level of integrity - Gessel, Sturgis.

Cons

Lots of talk about philosophy, but favoritism is given to many individuals. You may get written up for the smallest situation of "disrespecting" another employee and another may have a blind eye turned. HR is way too concerned about "investigating" insignificant issues - people are dragged into rooms for interviews. This creates chasms between employees as each thinks the other is sharing personal information about the others. Dialogue is stifled.

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
