Pros

Running water, flush toilets for now. Free ear plugs.

Cons

TYRANNICAL RULE. The current management is undoubtedly the worst possible. The Regional and Plant Management, Human Resources and most of the Supervisors are fueled by greed. Production Employees are individually punished bullied and discriminated against for voicing concerns that are REAL issues but completely ignored by Management over and over again. I cannot believe this plant hasn't been in court over Human Rights violations yet. They work the employees like prisoners in a work camp and will make you suffer if you don't perform exceptionally with the broken and unrepaired outdated machinery that we are forced to use. It's a 3rd world plant in a multiBillion dollar company. It's an absolute disgrace. The quality of the materials is even worse. You have to be a magician to make anything turn out the way its supposed to. EVERYTHING comes down to MONEY in Management's pockets. Safety ?? Lol. WCB and Workplace Safety and Health should be all over this place. Please take my advice and stay away from this place. Find a job where you will be appreciated for your efforts and not penalized for not being able to give Management what they want. And discriminated against for speaking the truth as unpleasant as it may be for them to hear. And don't believe ANYTHING the HR person tells you if you ARE interviewed. Wait and speak to an actual production worker before accepting a job here. YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID. THIS PLACE IS TOXIC BEYOND BELIEF !!!!!!
