Pros

If you are blind or visually impaired and unemployed, this is a great place to get a basic job and learn about manufacturing. Good opportunity to get free braille and computer classes. Some neat people work here.

Cons

Some supervisor's are stricter than others, and some communicate better than others, but communication through the organization is a long term problem. Causes many employees to give up and "just do the job." Hopefully a turnover will help? Great to have a blind CEO but he is not in touch with what most workers really think and feel. Seems the upper executives are very separate in their nice large offices, it feels like they look down on the manual laborers as less than. Some of the supervisors are spread way too thin, doing too much, and it effects everything g and everyone.

Pros

If you are the type of employee that enjoys being disengaged and expect to clock in and just be there, this is the place for you!

Cons

Lack of communication, opportunity for advancement, exception of new ideas/different thoughts and proper management among other cons
