Pros

- Work is steady and reliable, can count on one hand the times throughout the year we were asked to come in extra days or not at all depending on demand - Depending on the job duty, we are allowed to listen to our own music/audio - Benefits are good/competitive - Quarterly bonuses are nice (as long as one remains in good standing, avoiding excess tardiness or behavior that prompts disciplinary action)

Cons

- Production work is very repetitive - Cross-training only happens once production goals are met & the right people agree to it, so can feel stuck and bored for many months - My Lean Manufacturing experience was praised during the interview, but have had little to no opportunities to practice it (they have a different role handle work process improvements, and don't seem interested to hear the suggestions of anyone else/the people working said processes) - Parts of the work area are in bad condition, the promised improvements have yet to be seen after 9+ months (ex: new outlet close enough to work device to avoid daisy-chaining power strips, enough outlets to power all the work devices that avoids blowing the circuit, broken wood holding up the work device above the floor has yet to be replaced) - Communication between day/night shifts seems to be broken/somewhat dysfunctional (decisions made on one shift are disagreed with/reversed on another, leading to a waste of time & energy as "good"/"bad" parts are moved back and fort to different areas)

Pros

Amazing parental leave, wellness reimbursement, innovative work, many opportunities. Encouraged to move within the company

Cons

Poor management of onboarding and training. A lot of miscommunication between groups. Always seems to be a “need this now” mentality.
