Pros

Pay was good, that's it.

Cons

Workforce is generally treated as expendable, scheduling is a nightmare, mandatory OT and weekends all the time

FORMS + SURFACES Response

Thanks for the feedback and sorry that it did not work out for you. Thanks for the positive comments in regard to our pay and I am glad to say that since we implemented our CareerTrak program our turnover has been greatly reduced and it shows that our workforce is highly valued and taken care of. We are fortunate to be very busy and have OT while many of our contemporaries have suffered due to COVID. We offer a great career path for those willing to put out the effort to be 5-star employees.

Pros

Hourly workers can have many opportunities for overtime. Some internal advancement is possible. A lot of people who are easy to get along with.

Cons

Hourly workers can only make good money through steady overtime. Some OT is mandatory which can wear on you. Employee development can be limited by the position or department you are in. Layoffs happen regularly due to business fluctuations.

Thanks for the great comments. All jobs are posted online and also spread internally via referral. We can however do a better job posting internally and will look to formalize a program in this area. We do try and promote from within where possible.
