Pros

They actually invest in their employees. You get the training to be able to do your job well, and you can move up as much as you choose. Worked 8 hr shifts so you actually have life, 12 hr shift companies are killing families.

Cons

Extremely hot in the summer and so cold in the winter that gloves are needed.

Pros

Growing company with many opportunities. Company gives you the opportunity to apply your strengths to grow personally, and in turn you have moved the company toward stronger growth. Identify a gap and fill it. Women's Innovation Network is creating awareness throughout the organization regarding women and empowering women to control their own careers. Hope to spend many more years contributing and growing with this company.

Cons

Company can be loyal to a fault. Very committed to their employees and often-times people can stay around when they are not performing personally.
