Pros

decent pay and benefits, 2 weeks vacation a year to start

Cons

Training on the machines is a joke, very much a "sink or swim" scenario. The machines are poorly maintained and unsafe, some held together by rags(actual strips of t-shirts) and zip ties where they are supposed to be bolted in place. Exposed gears and drive chains and multiple fire hazards that haven't been addressed or fixed in years. Extremely hot work environment

Novolex Response

Thank you for taking the time to comment. We take training and safety very seriously. If you would like to share any specific concerns, please feel free to reach out to HRSC@novolex.com.
