Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay, good benefits and good Pto.

Cons

A lot of OT but, with the new manger a lot of people left because of the micromanaging and your looked at as a number not a person. This manager just makes so, many people work life harder and over complicate’s everything. The manager took a good thing with this place and is slowly running into the ground, he’s even got people taking early retirement by 5 years because they don’t want to deal with this person anymore. Just be aware if you apply for a job here there defiantly pros but, the one con is defiantly enough to sink any ship.
