Pros

Good for executives, and directors they can enjoy bossism.

Cons

No work life balance, some of directors of engineering will NOT treat employees respectfully, they just want to look good to their boss, they will push on unrealistic things just by joining the company few months back. So there will be always turnarounds and openings in company website. consider this as last option. working like old manufacturing company , taking work from engineers by threatening by removing from job. no motivation strategy . not good process to execute the work, but these directors have no idea about the current process.

Pros

good product. they provide hourly work to people is rural area.(very low pay but still work in an are with not much else)

Cons

Where to start? A lot of management works here for a reason. Most would never make it anywhere else. Very low class. Absolutely no career plan, don't think they even know what that is. HR will end up getting sued soon. Lying to recruiter employees isn't right, starting off with the location and job the employees will be doing. No drug testing brings in an interesting crowd. Racism and misconduct is allover the manufacturing floor and HR things its funny. They don't pay for driving your own car, even after one month, 7 days a week and over 130 miles per day. My car sure did like that. Company over all is way behind in every level. They like people that present well and run their mouth and ignore the once that get the job done and keep the company going. They had the nerve to tell an employee to stand by a machine and open the door to push the part back on if its about to fall off. When they got busted by OSHA they blamed the employee and moved him to a different line. Its not safe to work here. One of the reason I left is they were ignoring my warning about the chemicals they are using. Some of the manufacturing work is no better then China level. Why do you require Engineers to dress professionally and tell them to do maintenance work??? Do you know how much close is ruined per year? There is a very strong old boys club but very low class, and a big hinder to the growth of the company.

Pros

You will always be smarter than your boss and the work week was only 6 days a week.

Cons

Management has no qualms about taking credit for your work or ideas. You will find yourself doing their jobs for them while they sit back and collect the pay. Beware when they offer you "opportunities". They will advance because of your hard work. They will create titles for their friends out of thin air. If you are not a yes man or disagree, you will be left to wallow in the dust.
