Pros

Good pay, Great benefits, very safety conscious plant, safe place to work

Cons

Very old plant. Toxic union environment. Tiered wages where all new employees hired since 2015 make 8-10$ less an hour than their counterparts doing the same exact job. No opportunity for growth. No incentive for high performance. Frequent layoffs

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.
