Pros
The employees are great, dedicated people. They just want to make a living and come to work and be treated fairly.
Cons
Toxic work environment One Manager controls the entire plant. If you disagree with him at any time or you do not spend your entire day tending to his needs, start looking for a new job because your days are numbered. Corporate management are in and out of the plant so they only see what a certain Manager wants them to see. The facility is so broken (from equipment to the culture) anyone who has the ability to fix it, won't. I The Manager causing the toxic work environment even has his bosses afraid of him. The plant is so behind the times regarding technology The union runs the resources department. They have full access to any and all employees records Corporate comes in and dictates new policies and procedures yet they sit in an office hours away and have no idea how these policies impact each facility. They are kicked off and then revised several times after the MGMT at the facility bring back concerns. Do your homework first!!!! The Managers who truly care and are good, they never last. The Managers who should have been weeded out, end up having lifelong careers. As for rules and policies - if you are liked or the Company is afraid of you - you can do whatever you want. If you come in, do your job and don't suck up to the plant manager, you will be written up, harassed and treated poorly. Also, do not expect anything to remain confidential, your personal business will be spread throughout the plant, quicky and always.
