Pros

$12 -13 starting pay, benefits after 6 months of employment

Cons

No attendance policy so if you call in they will fire you. No air conditioning and once the electricity went out, so the fans quit working, and they still made us work in 100+ temperatures. They will force you to do overtime, if not, your fired. They moved me from a job I was good at to somewhere I wasn't and fired me for it instead of moving me back. Employees worked off the clock in fear that they would not make their quota. I tried to switch my hours and was denied. I tried to switch my position back to where I was productive and was denied. Management will pull you aside and scold you in front of all the other workers several times a day if you are not making your quota. Management tried to get me to sign a paper that said "voluntary termination" on it. After I was fired it took about a month for me to get my last paycheck, after a few phone calls and a visit to the office. I feel so bad for the people that work there, its an unethical and a very corrupt company.

Pros

Job security Incredibly simple work - anybody can do it Whenever they have overtime, it's all voluntary Good benefits and little extras Insurance kicks in after only 3 months You get a week of paid vacation after only 6 months The cafeteria offers a delicious lunch for $3 (day shift only)

Cons

Standing for 8+ hours - my feet are on fire at the end of the day All the little things are nice, but I'd trade them for better pay Starting pay is $12 an hour and there's a $.20 raise every six months, do the math You'd have to work there: 8 years to make $30,000 a year 20 years to make $40,000 a year 28 years to make $50,000 a year Merit raises are extremely rare, apparently they used to be more common No raise for being promoted to machine setup The work is mind-numbingly repetitive Overtime comes and goes

Pros

The people are great, not the management but the people you work beside day in day out. Pay is average. Summer conditions suck.

Cons

The HR department and upper management is a joke, I injured my shoulder at work and they refused to let me leave due to having to pay overtime. I worker there for 1 year and a half and requested to transfer to days, they gave me the run around until the very last day, I ended up leaving and haven't looked back since.
