Pros

The benefits are ok, they used to be a lot better. Over the years the company continues to chip away at them.

Cons

So many bad experiences with this place. A decade ago, it was a great place to work but now it's a sh!t show. The only way to move up in the company is to be bad at your current position. The bad employees are shifted from department to department every 2 years. The good ones that work hard are left in the same position without a promotion forever. The management style at this facility is the biggest problem. Plant managers are changed out every couple of years and the directors run around like children. Expect to be asked to do work for those that are incapable and have your vacation requests be denied by your manager. The company also cares more about training you to be diverse and inclusive than managing production time or being an effective leader. It's probably the last place in Waco you want to work at. It's better to be at Refresco or Mars where the workload is less, and the people are happier. Walking around this place you see so many depressed people not to mention the ruined marriages.

Pros

I learned a lot while working this job. The systems like Veeva and Workfront were difficult to learn at first, but once I got the hang of them it was great. There were a lot of great people working around me that wanted to see me succeed.

Cons

Working as a contract worker had it's cons. At times, it felt like I was a little bit of an afterthought in the company with some superiors because I was not a full time employee. Communication suffered at times as well.
