Pros

Very strict which I love. Great boss. Love that I get to deal with everyone from Upper management all the way to the shop floor. Steve Trulaske is one of us, he is down to earth and will stop and talk to anyone. Great to see a man of that statue still get down and dirty with his employees.

Cons

Negative nanny people dragging the place down (very bad), I would say only about 5 percent but these people are knowingly doing things they should be fired for. Get these people out of here so we can CONTINUE to make true a great place to work.

We are sorry that you feel this way. As you can see from our previous reviews and ratings that not all of our current or previous employees feel this way. We do provide our production team members with a 10 minute break in the morning as well as a 30 minute lunch. We are proud to offer our employees a work life balance, great pay and benefits at a stable company that is a leader in the commercial refrigeration industry.
