Pros
Operators and office personnel are great to work with.
Cons
- Lack of leadership. There are no leaders, only Driver's. - Facilities are tired and worn. Presses are past the use by date and leak fluids continually. Operators struggle to keep equipment running. - Workplace has a culture of fear. "Accountability" is in the form of berating an employee loudly and publicly for mistakes. - Breaks and lunch periods are monitored. If an employee is detained and misses their break, it is not permissible to add an additional 10min onto their lunch period. Breaks and overtime are closely monitored. - Emphasis is on "making the numbers" for the month. - Investment is not in employees, facilities or equipment, in fact, annual time off has been reduced as a cost cutting measure. - If an employee has scheduled vacation or personal time off during the week and is then told it is mandatory to work the weekend, it is not counted as overtime pay because the employee used PTO during the week.
