Doesn't care about hourly employees

Pros

Decent benefits and pay. That's about it. Even that is becoming more and more scarce.

Cons

No communication between hourly employees and management, in fact no communication in management either. Senior department managers cannot be trusted, they will lie to keep employees "on a leash." Good work is not valued, those who break rules, are rude to supervision and abuse "privileges" are rewarded. Brown nosers are rewarded as well until they are no longer useful. The company is not family oriented as they claim, they could care less about employees families. Cutthroat in how they treat supposed under-educated hourly workers. Anything you say to a manager will be used against you later. Plant manager says he does not want an us and them attitude between hourly employees and management, but his actions indicate otherwise. No chance for advancement unless you are in the clique, or have someone from corporate who looks out for you. This company expects employees to make sacrifices to work there but refuse to show appreciation for it. This was a much better company when the Cokers had control, at least most of them knew our names.

Pros

Customer focused and valued transparency. Salary and bonus potential are competitive. Products are leaders in their categories which enable job stability.

Cons

No documented process to capture intellectual capital from long term employees. As a result, the company loses valuable time and resources trying to sustain the gains when senior members retire or voluntarily leave the company.
