Pros

Great team locally, benefits are decent to good.

Ops Manager very disconnected, changes made with no real idea of impact at plant level or daily operations needs. Corporate also disconnected. Top heavy but not investing in the local level management or providing growth.

Pros

Competitive pay/remote friendly when necessary.

Cons

Subpar benefits with a high deductible. No formal or written policies. Conference calls and projects without project plans or clear goals. Disorganized corporate structure. Promoting managers into roles and areas that they have no knowledge of. It is a setup for failure. A lack of knowledge results in micromanagement and reactionary management practices. Changes in job titles without being provided updated job descriptions. No clear policies equates to managers being able to make up their own rules at their discretion.
