Pros

Great benefits, 21 days off, 401k match, lots of opportunities for advancement. Cardinal pushes an inclusive atmosphere. Company is very wellness focused.

Cons

Terrible local culture. Cardinal “corporate” as they call it is located in Dublin, OH and offers a modern workspace with great flexibility options and a wonderful work-life balance. The Twinsburg location values sitting at your desk regardless of whether you’re actually performing. Don’t even think about working from home or taking an afternoon off. PTO must be authorized weeks in advance or it’s unapproved and held against you. Despite being given a laptop, you must sit at your desk in the building to do any work. Unless they ask you to work weekends. Workspace is crowded and outdated. Desks are tiny and never dusted or wiped down. Some employees are given standing desks but I can’t figure out how to get one approved for the life of me. Culture is very authoritarian. If you challenge a viewpoint or offer an alternative, prepare to be written up for insubordination. Expect zero tolerance policies for things like hitting traffic or being sick. While Cardinal as a whole has been a great company to work for, steer clear of the Twinsburg office. You’ll regret your decision to work there every day.

Pros

- Good benefits - Easy training - They strive to understand how to get someone to their fullest potential

Cons

- No concrete track for promotion, to the point that it seemed impossible - They will not listen to their workers - Management on-site and higher up are very lazy - They will expect you to do the work that they schedule, even if it is impossible to complete - From the perspective of my role in quality control, it seemed impossible to make management, and also production in general, understand the time it takes for certain procedures and tests to be completed and reviewed. - Our entire site is getting shut down, and they are just now ramping up production to meet quotas and schedules. While, at the same time, keeping our severance estimations as vague as possible. - Low to no incentivization for anything
