Constant turnover

Pros

I can’t think of one pro.

Cons

Management is disorganized, lacks transparency, and consistently fails to support employees. Leadership is more focused on control than collaboration, creating a culture of fear and micromanagement rather than trust and growth. The work environment is toxic, with constant turnover, and little regard for employee well-being. Communication is poor, and decisions are made without input or explanation, leaving staff feeling undervalued and disconnected. Compensation is well below industry standards, and there are no opportunities for advancement or professional development. Hard work and dedication are rarely acknowledged, which only adds to the low morale across teams. Bottom line: This company does not invest in its people, and it shows. I would not recommend it to anyone seeking a healthy workplace or long-term career growth.

Pros

True pays their employees well. You also get raises if you work hard. There's plenty of opportunities to learn a new job in the company.

Cons

Since it is a non climate controlled factory, the summers are very hot. They do provide drinks and have a water and ice machine.

Pros

In maintenance there’s zero pressure to rush through your work. If you work too fast you will be asked to slow down by your direct supervisor.

Cons

In maintenance if you’re an off shift you are treated extremely poorly. Very much a boys club mentality. They preach against nepotism and favoritism but it is very abundant at this company. Everything you do is tracked time wise so if i repaired a ton of machines in a shift but did it very quickly upper upper management wonders why you can get so much accomplished but people on another shift are struggling to get half as much as you accomplished in the same time frame. PM’s dont exist here operators and maintenance are both guilty of never doing their pm’s. Your direct supervisors will lie about you and to you. Very rumor mill heavy. Supervisors are not afraid to demand you break osha regulations.
