Pros

The employees tend to be a close knit group. It can be an OK place to work if you don't take things personally, just need a paycheck and can leave your brain at home. It's not for the long term. Turnover is very high.

Cons

There is no career ladder, no promotions, no regular reviews, no raises other than what can be negotiated privately. Creativity and innovation are strongly discouraged. The work can best be described as busy work. The focus is on getting through the day and the projects are designed that way. Everyone's daily duties are very micro-managed. Harassment by management is prevalent. Employees are frequently fired on a whim without cause. The company is very management heavy and rife with graft and corruption. There is no safety program. The facility is under constant threat of shutdown.

Pros

The company does have its good points, the benefits were good, most of the people were nice to work with. During the move from Maryland, everyone was over worked and under appreciated for their efforts. There was no where near enough knowledge transfer at that time. Hopefully things have improved. Dennis Hiller is a great guy to work for and with. He is very fair and very smart with his business decisions.

Cons

There is a lot of OT worked. Nights and weekends are expected regularly. This was true when I was there. Things may have improved in the last few years, this info may be out of date at this time.
