Pros

The HR department in San Antonio is very nice, helpful and want to help resolve employee issues. The pay and benefits are good once you have been there for 90 days. The extensive safety training was very well conducted, although should have either been 2 days or HR paperwork done first then safety training the following day

Cons

The supervisors need to give better initial training. They need to let the employees do their jobs and don't belittle them if they make a mistake. They need to learn how to respect employees and they will in turn earn their respect and they will go above and beyond what is asked of them. Some of the supervisors acted like children throwing temper tantrums, I didn't know if I should give them a bottle or put them in a time out.
