Pros

The pay scale can be generous if motivated to advance within production departments. Pay for performance quarterly bonus. Inclusive work environment.

Cons

12 hour swing shifts. Forced overtime. Loss of experienced workers, who, are not appreciated. Overtime burden on motivated employees. Mid level managers out of touch with employees on the floor.

Pros

Ability to work 100% remote.

Cons

ITAS OTC Manager has no clue how to manage, encourage development, or plan growth. He was too busy trying to keep his skills up and not actually cultivate newcomers and manage well. I felt alone and not supported by my manager. The environment is not great for newcomers to the company. The team supposedly has so much work, but was able to lay me off after returning to work from health event. Complete and utter joke. They do not honor their core values. Beware of this place.
