Pros

New leadership is making a huge difference in transforming the way the company works. They're transparent, focused on results and business growth but also on creating a positive, fun culture where people want to work. As an employee, we have fun at work, even though we're still working through some really serious business challenges.

Cons

Definitely still working through some key strategic transitions that will enable the business to be stronger. Departments historically have been pretty siloed, so the work that's being done now to build teamwork will be really important to improve internal collaboration.

Pros

“One of the most rewarding parts of my role was building my team and continuing to learn. The plant employees consistently supported one another, which made the work meaningful.”

Cons

Corporate leadership made collaboration difficult. Criticism was frequent and often came from individuals without plant-level knowledge. I was told I was “wrong” while actively teaching and supporting them. Corporate leadership operated under different rules than the plants, including separate vacation plans and holidays. Equal treatment was never achieved, and the belittling behavior was unlike anything I had experienced in a professional environment. The culture reflected a clear “do as I say, not as I do” mentality. In my experience, Corporate HR lacked transparency and demonstrated questionable ethical practices. Accountability was inconsistent, which made it difficult to lead effectively and retain strong talent.
