Pros

You don't have to commute through heavy traffic.

Cons

- Management destroys employee morale and motivation. Low pay raises, rewards, and bonuses. - Poor working environment due to poor personnel management, Inequality among coworkers, managers are not helping to resolve personnel issues fairly. - Lots of managers show favoritism toward to their favorite workers and some managers lie to suppress the truth to cover their favorites. - Assign or promote inappropriate people for inappropriate positions due to the favoritism. - HR Dep. does not step into personnel issues to resolve issues for employees. - Lack of experienced staffs in HR Department. This company did not have HR Dep.in this location for many years and they recently selected a person internally for the HR position. - Management offers jobs to employees' family, friends, and extended relatives. This kind of practice often causes conflicts and favoritism. - Anybody below management takes only 30 min lunch break, and people with managerial title get 1 hour lunch break. - Lots of good employees got fired due to the favoritism/personnel issues. - Lots of good employees left the company voluntarily due to the poor personnel management, low pay raises, and lack of opportunity of development.

Pros

Great people and great work environment! The company is putting more focus on IT, which is great. The new IT guy is super knowledgeable, and the new HR person is super helpful!

Cons

The company is growing fast, and we need to continue to work to keep up with that growth. We need to continue to work to increase our on-site technology. Additionally, succession planning needs to be a big focus.

Pros

People on the floor make the shift go by quickly They believe in feeding you Pay is decent ONLY after you get your raises Company paid uniforms which definitely will save your personal clothing.

Cons

Upper management is so into themselves that they lock themselves in the front office while they are at work, they literally lock themselves in the front office, you have to buzz them and ask to see HR or whomever you need to see, then they'll let you in. Certain managers won't speak to you if they see you on the floor, I spoke to one of them once and they looked at me as if I had insulted them. WAY to long to go temp to perm(6 months), people come and go for that reason. 6 months in between raises as well Required to wear long sleeves year round I have personally witnessed great workers get fired for simple mistakes while some lazier workers mess up daily and still have a job.
