Pros

Plant production workers were great to work with.

Cons

Management did not have any support and or interest in developing new talent. With a 15+ year managerial culture, method of management was very old school, wanting supervisor to work 10-12hrs a day and upon hire you're told you get holidays off but this is revoked by management whenever they think it's necessary. Very fire fighter mentality of fixing problems, every department was run thin, making the job very stressful.

Pros

Great benefits, medical, 401k, etc

Cons

Senior Management reviews are desperately needed. Upper Managers are focused on end goal and pleasing Directors, they forget that employees are critical in achieving the goal. Long hours have become the norm not the exception. Senior Managers telling Managers to delegate work to their employees is not the answer. They are also working long hours. There are not enough people to do the work but upper management is not concerned as long as things are getting done. Unfortunately they are getting done but may not be getting done to the best of the employees abilities due to not enough time to go through all needed to complete the task. Expressing concerns goes no where.

Production Supervisor--overworked to the point of frustration

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

PPO Medical insurance was good. Worked with some dedicated hard working people.

Cons

Everyone was quitting due to a plant manager with no idea how to lead. Can't keep expecting more and more out of people on a flat sub par salary. Worked 12.5 hour nights then was kept over for the most pointless meetings in the morning which never ended on time.
