Pros

There’s nothing good about it

Cons

I was hired practically on the spot, which should’ve been my first red flag. All departments referencing a document for order entry but no one reads it, so things are constantly missed. There’s no growth plans, if you want to keep growing your career If you have been there a long time, you get the luxury of not caring about your work and doing the bare minimum and management will do nothing about it. The system they use could be used way more practically but they don’t want to change. There is zero communication or accountability. They get you to do tasks that are completely out of your job scope and what you were hired for. There are a lot of people retiring and they have no plans to work on training someone to cover those retiring. Which means when they do retire there will be a lot of empty spots. They have no plans to increase production and seem to have only decreased their capacity. The ceo doesn’t even know when a machine is broken because no one communicates

Thank you for your post; however, I do not understand your feedback regarding "tenants". We are not a landlord or property management company.

Pros

Decent benefits, good training by shop floor staff.

Cons

Mandatory overtime including holidays. You better not have a family or personal life working here. Micromanagement by every department, and you never meet the owner who's on site many days of the week. He doesn't make himself available. Getting a raise is a joke, I waited over a year to get past my hire on wages, it was the first last and only raise I got. $15.00 per hour was my ending wages. New policies every week, with MANDATORY meetings. They sure do love the word mandatory.
