Pros

* My coworkers are great people. * The work is satisfying. * My commute is very short. * The pay is good.

Cons

* Management is extremely inept. They just hired two floor supervisors to get us "back in line", even though we aren't the problem - management is. * Micromanagement is a cancer here. * Benefits are sub-standard for such a large company. * Rotating shiftwork. We work the day shift, then midnight shift, then evening shift, and so on. We currently work 8-hour shifts, but we used to work 12-hour shifts on a rotating schedule (7 days of day shift and 7 days of night shift each month), and we would get 7 days off at the end of each rotation. Now, we only get our weekends off, but didn't get an increase in the number of vacation days we are allotted (well, the union president managed to negotiate an extra week of vacay for the senior workers but us junior workers remain at two weeks a year). So much for union support. BOHICA.

Pros

Autonomy Remote work opportunities Decent Pay - only if you negotiate it

Cons

Zero training Poor leadership Lack of recognition Constant focus on “closing gaps” - you’ll spend all your time talking about less than 2% of revenue/profit Inconsistent bonus payouts with no metrics to understand how they arrive at a figure No clarity on how to achieve pay increases. Constant responsibilities added to your role that were not previously part of the role you were hired for.
