Pros

Decent pay, zero to no supervision

Cons

Management is clueless. Most have never worked on the floor so they are giving directions blindly and expectations don’t meet reality.

Pros

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Cons

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Pros

Met some good people while there that are still friends.

Cons

Extremely difficult to suggest changes and being taken seriously. Benchmark is stuck on its hiring process. Where a piece of paper is worth more than experience.
