Pros

Most of the people that you work with are great and it can be an interesting job at times. The pay is competitive for the area.

Cons

The benefits are horrible for a company of this size.Medical Insurance is at the minimum allowed by Obamacare and there is no 401k match what so ever. Raises are almost nonexistent and forget about a bonus unless you are part of upper management. The management there is about as disconnected from the workforce as humanly possible and only out to take care of themselves. It's just not a good environment anymore, and that's to bad because I used to really like my job!

Pros

Steady work with a varied mix.

Cons

Some of the worst and costly benefits of any local Co.s. No pension or 401K match. No appreciation of employee's contributions. You are just a number with a pulse. OT scheduling is so "from the hip" and complicated that most people end up on an att. program. One set of rules for some and one set for others. Some of the worst leadership among management that ever existed. No flexibility to work with the employees and the challenges that pop up in their lives
