Pros
If you just need work, it does provide. Since shifts are 12-hour, and you work alternating 3/4 -day weeks, if you pick up a day of overtime on your long week, you'll be bringing home a nice fat paycheck. If you came in through a temp agency and make it past the probationary period, you'll almost certainly get hired on (or at least that was the case when I worked there). The work schedule is 12 hour days, working alternating 3- and 4-day weeks. This means you get alternating 4- and 3-day weekends. 3 stars for work-life balance because of the longer weekends.
Cons
Where to start? Anyone above the immediate floor/cel managers is completely disconnected from what actually goes on, and what is needed, on the floor. They do the "Kaizen" thing, but only the motions, they're missing the spirit of it. Shift warfare is a thing. AM shift blames PM shift, PM shift blames AM shift, shift A blames shift B, shift B blames shift A, etc. Lots of blame and finger-pointing. It even got to the point where the other shift would take all the quick, easy jobs, and leave the longer, harder jobs for our shift. Lots of cliques as well people taking smoke breaks and even using pot on the job, but no one with any tangible proof would step forward because they're all buddies. Vaupell wouldn't do anything about it because it cost too much to bring a fed in to test people. It's ALL about numbers, numbers, numbers. Get those orders done! Some 12-hour days are spent doing only 1 or 3 very long, very repetitive tasks. It gets boring and tedious quickly. Also, from all the repetitive motions, almost everyone on the floor has carpal tunnel. Anything about employee health and safety is all superficial. They tell us to stay home if we're sick so we don't get anyone else sick, but with 12 hour shifts, it literally takes MONTHS to earn a single sick day. They only give the state minimum in sick time. They know in advance when OSHA comes. They shut down many of the injection-molding machines, so the air quality passes. Safety is generally ignored until it becomes a problem. For a long time, one cel was asking for the emergency brake on a piece of equipment to be replaced, because it didn't even work anymore. It finally did get replaced, but only after an employee went to the doctor's with metal shards lodged in their hand. Also, be careful if you're a temp-to-hire. Don't get sick, don't screw up, just walk on eggshells. They're quick to dismiss temps and just as quick to replace them (and why not, they have no investment in you at that point). If you've been there long enough, you'll get the general impression that, or have heard someone say: good employees don't stay here. They realize even similar jobs in the same neighborhood pay better and treat employees better.
