Pros

Good place for marketing/sales major to get their initial "3 yrs experience (then get out before they get you out).

Cons

Publicly held, privately run. A cluster. Annual "restructuring" >> elimination of management to increase stated cost savings and bump the c-suite bonuses. Negates the constant talk of concern for associates and their families. Toxic culture of cronyism. Marysville/WHQ leadership unwilling to support change for fear of surfacing in a less than positive manner. Legacy leadership allowed to stagnate in key Director roles preventing professional growth of subordinates. Front line/plant personnel are great and highly dedicated, but suffer due to inadequate leadership at the Sr Director level.

Weekly pay, 2 of the supervisors are sweet.
