Pros
Excellent co-workers in the trenches and if it is still there when I want it, the retirement program.
Cons
The NEW Paid Time Off issue in which we lost hours to be sick and now the Federal Holidays come out of the lower hours as well. Corporate is either clueless or as I feel, they just don't care. Hourly employees are being forced to give up alot of the meager benefits we have, working less hours (that whole structure for paid time off was very well calculated to hurt), increased insurance premiums on those less hours and a general feeling that the 'family oriented' company we work for is only concerned with those 'family members' in the Twin Towers in Eden Prairie and district and plant management, the rest of us are just 'red-headed stepchildren'. No offense to redheads.
