As an outsider, I did not feel welcome.

Pros

Learning was promoted. Keeping fit was encouraged. Though fitness was pushed to help control cost, it provided personal rewards.

Cons

I felt that management thought that they were superior to their subordinates. In the plants, the behavior could be " raw." Of course, this was only my second experience with a manufacturing concern. I believe Joel's heart's in the right place.

Pros

Range of shifts available including night shifts. Shifts are 12 hours, all part time hours can be achieved in 2 days. Employees are welcome/encouraged (but not required) to sign up for extra hours.

Cons

Two 20 min breaks for the 12 hour shift. Can not leave facility for any reason.. this means no smoke breaks or fresh air. Do not get caught taking a quick rest from working even if your machine is down. You may have busted your butt for the last 10 hours straight but if there is nothing to do on the machine you'll have to find a broom. taking a breather is taboo.
