Pros

Good team dynamics with a strong sense of community. On my 2nd interview, my manager had most of the team present, so we could mutually learn about each other. 1/3rd way the interview, my manager left the room for 10 minutes, instructing the team to answer freely any questions I might have. I was extremely impressed by their being so open, and I was not disappointed when I eventually started working there. They impressed me as a solidly run company, that maintained good human relations.

Cons

I have nothing bad to report.

Pros

Easily accessible on the west end of Guelph. Has a great potential to become a super profitable company and an industry leader with the right management in place.

Cons

Lack of leadership at the management level. Company still operates like it did 30-40 years ago. Obvious operational problems are ignored by management. There are too many incompetent people that should have been walked out the door years ago. Employee training is weak at best. There is an internal culture that prides itself on being good at correcting mistakes quickly - practise makes perfect! Various departments are compartmentalized by their managers and do not act as a team for the common good of the company. Decisions tend to be made with kneejerk reactions; use of soud data analysis is rare at best. There is a serious lack in engineering and planning capability. Also, the air quality and plant cleanliness is poor for todays standards.

Pros

Excellent wage, benefits and pension, supervisors are good people to work for, coworkers generally get along well and are willing to help each other when needed, fairly relaxed work environment

Cons

Management sometimes allows those with a poor work ethic to slide by and count on those who work harder to pick up the slack. Engineering does not update instructions in a timely fashion and it is expected that operators remember all the information and catch the errors from engineering (almost a daily occurrence), occasionally poor planning to order supplies results in downtime on your job.
