Pros

-Reasonable compensation, but you aren't likely to get rich. -PTO policy is quite flexible. -Reasonable benefits. -Free coffee, ice cream, and other on site benefits. -You can learn a lot working here, it spans a wide range of potential skills. -Fantastic co-workers for the most part. -Plenty of company engagement activities. -Employee resource groups have been formed in recent years to help diversity and inclusion among employees who belong to certain groups, such as african american, hispanic, LGBTQ+, and women. -Simply put, the company mission is something I very much believe in.

Cons

This is longer, but don't take it to mean that cons outweigh the pros. -Most hiring for bottom or mid level employees is done through temp services, so turn over is fantastically high, and I was kept as a temp with no benefits for just over 20 months before I was hired in a full-time capacity. -Middle management is a complete mixed bag. Some managers are great, and others run their area as their personal fiefdom. Some play favorites quite badly. -Quality and Safety feel like they take a back seat to delivery in far too many situations. -Company policies are not always clearly communicated to employees. There is very little policy and/or code of conduct training, which I've seen create inter-personal problems and an HR department that feels like they are just making up rules as they go. -Over the past few years, we've had three or four people managing the Safety team, so things are muddled to say the least in this respect. -The quality team is small and is neutered with regards to authority so they feel like they are just lip service to actually improving quality. -If you are on a 10 or 12 hour shift, during holidays you will only get 8 hours of paid time. It's up to you to find the extra hours to work if you want a full paycheck in a pay period with a holiday. We were told that these folks getting 10 or 12 hours of paid time on a holiday would be unfair to those working 8 hour shifts (which is admittedly the majority). I've talked with dozens of people who work 8 hours, I've yet to find one person who things this would be unfair. Most people agree that a holiday should pay one normal shift for that individual typical schedule.
