Pros

It's a job. The cafeteria is nice.

Cons

No incentive. No benefits. Be ready for a warm welcome and a harsh work enviroment. Management makes working there non-enjoyable. No room for moving up in the company. Whatever position you apply for be ready to stay in that position for a very long time.

Pros

Nothing that I can think of.

Cons

When you put your two week notice in at Human Resources and you are told by Human Resources that your last day is the moment you are putting your 2 week notice in and you are told you are not being fired...shady deal....if I had to do it all over again, I would not apply for a job here.

Pros

Some good people left from back when culture was family-oriented and hard work was rewarding.

Cons

Most veterans and those with talent have left the company, and the rest are seeking other opportunities. The attempts to change the culture over the past few years have resulted in epic failures. The company has changed the operations team with lack-luster, self-serving micro managers. So many dollars have been spent to improve productivity, only to have taken ten steps back, rather than forward. Employees are left questioning how products can even be profitable, with numbers being manipulated by leadership, in an effort to distort what's really happening - thus preventing the truth from being discovered by those at the very top. The arrogance that resides within this company is nauseating.
