Horrible place to work

Pros

Free Parking, Free Showers and box of chocolates for Christmas.

Cons

Management is terrible here, they promote ppl to management who have no business being there. The morale here is very low. People are miserable. The wages are low for being a union shop. Nobody wants to fight for anything more. Just an overall bad place to work, by far my worst experience. Actively looking for a new job.

Pros

Training opportunities are okay (if you manager likes you).

Cons

See title. Unless you are fresh out of college, this is not the place for you. Advancement opportunities are non-existent, and, when you take new responsibilities, they won’t bump your title or pay. Speaking of pay raises, they play favorites there too. If you aren’t one of the “good ‘ole boys” you can expect lower than average raises (if any at all) along with bonuses that are less than the advertised amount to employees (again, if any). Stop acting like the raises you give out come out of you personal pockets. Culture is toxic there with finger-pointing, denial of responsibility and just outright rude behavior (yelling, interrupting people, etc.), and, having to deal with it constantly is physically and emotionally draining. They have a “referral bonus” system in place, but I wouldn’t even recommend my mortal enemy to work here. I’ll be thankful when I walk out the door here.
