Pros

- Pay is competitive in Barrie

Cons

- Repetitive physical tasks - Union for production is a joke - Managements bottom line is to have better profit margins over keeping up to date on equipment or safety - Runs like a small company - wont add extra employees to keep things moving or reduce physical stress on employees. Waits to the last minute to attempt fixing things - Horrible safety meetings, horrible S.O.P management or training, - Wont stay up to date on equipment maintenance - Dont work here if you are offered to work evenings, you are an after thought and will be worked twice as hard as your counter parts. - Benefits are horrible. Ive never seen a union to horribly negotiate their contract.

Very knowledgeable managers and dynamic team to work with. They make sure interns learn a lot and helped with career development. The culture is hard working and people are very helpful.

Cons

Not much bad things to say. No complaints on other team members or management. Very good work-life balance.

Pros

Fair pay for the area and industry. Plenty of hours for work typically available.

Cons

VERY high employee turnover rate. Supervisors spread too thin between the different departments and shifts negatively impacting operational efficiency. Leading managers and directors seemed inexperienced in overseeing non-automated production issues. Customer service and office personnel did not demonstrate strong working knowledge in production causing numerous problems in scheduling and production that had to be dealt with in manufacturing on a DAILY basis. Numerous concerns over how human resources/personnel issues were handled. Work schedule fluctuated frequently making work-life balance efforts difficult and stressful for employees.
