Pros

Good people to work with, (fairly) recession-proof segment of the economy

Cons

Management at site sets personal vendettas against disliked employees, no fairness in treatment, no training program whatsoever- whatever job you have, expect to have it forever, company has had no clue how to handle a production facility this diverse or this in need of infrastructure improvement and uses spaghetti marketing in it's attempts to maintain/improve processes, weak-sauce union representation- if you make a mistake, don't expect the union to be able to help you keep your job, poor safety policies and follow through on said policies

Pros

Great benefits overall when it comes to medical, 401k match and other benefits.

Cons

Work load and the department has very high expectations for this job. It's almost like an account manager/ customer service roll.

Pros

I have no pros that I can think of

Cons

I was actually let go in 2019. It would not let me scroll in the drop down for the year. I was let go after returning from short term disability. The only time I ever was on short term disability in 11 years. My lawyer told me I could sue and would more than likely win. I chose not to.
