Pros

Entry Level Hire. Good benefits package upon conversion to permanent hire. 40+hrs 5 days a week. Many devices to be trained in. Room for growth in position level. HR protected.

Cons

Poor pay for those who do a lot and trained for higher positions. Supervisors can be unprofessional and rude to new hires and veterans. Managers too busy to deal with issues on the line or with supervisors who behave unprofessional. You have to continuously complain to HR before anything gets looked into. Diversity? Where do I begin. If you're not Asian they don't take you serious or offer you better positions or offer you better positions. Filipinos... Filipinos constantly form clicks and do favoritisms for each other if they're in higher up positions and can do so. You hardly hear english spoken,therefore it ends up feeling like your in another country(Asia)and feel isolated. You become a target if you make any complaints towards others and looked down on if you do the right thing by the company. Your chances for growth and better pay becomes tainted or hindered by the drama despite how hard you work to stay out it. Ever since 3rd shift, hours and overtime has been less. You don't get a full 40 hours and overtime is rare. The 25% differential for graveyard doesn't put a dent in your check at all.

Pros

Great co-worker, great CEO. Ok pay.

Cons

not so good management. In order to grow your career in this place, " not what you know but who you friend with". They don't pay enough for the people who still longer there and do more work.
