I worked at Pace just under two years, it was my first job right out of school. After a few months on the job I began to see that I made a mistake in taking the job. They tend to hire people right out of school, a few years out with little to no experience, or those who are desperate for a job so that they can get away with paying a lower salary, especially with the chemicals that you are exposed to. They would also take advantage of this fact and give you a high quantity of work. Do not expect to get much of a bonus (if you get one) or even advance within the company or even to another department. It is not worth being a starter job because when you try to apply for a similar position at another company they will want to start you off in a lower position or entry level.
My supervisor was very unprofessional. She would talk openly about other employees, I once even overheard her talking about me, and when I confronted her about it she did not even deny that she did. She even yelled and threw a tantrum with a worker in front of other coworkers and another manager and was not confronted or reprimanded.
One of the Core Values of the Company is to value the employee. This is merely to save face. If you ever told in the staff meetings that it is mandatory you have to take a certain amount of days off within a certain time span, layoffs are coming. This is what happened to me, I'd scheduled my days off for the following week. That Friday not even halfway through the day I was given my walking papers.
