Pros

Excellent pay Supervisors are available for assistance and support Great benefits (medical, dental, vision w/401K match Occasional business travel Company retreats, picnics, luncheons, and raffles Salary benefits but they do pay overtime (1.5x your estimated hourly rate) Opportunity to earn quarterly bonuses (up to 4% of your annual salary) Supply any office supplies you may request Paid time off Paid sick leave

Cons

Amount of work asked to complete is beyond achievable (you will never be caught up) Requirements needed to meet your full bonus are nearly impossible(you will receive partial bonuses though) Supervisors are helpful however they will not stick up for you to the managers...EVER Managers over the course of time, are working harder and harder to micro-manage their employees If you do not pull your weight, you will be let go. If fired, they will fight unemployment benefits HR provides no support and makes it clear that you are being a nuisance if you do go to them for any reason You will NEVER be promoted if you do not have at least a 4 year college degree DO NOT MAKE WAVES! While it is usually a comfortable and drama free environment, should you speak out for any reason that management doesn’t like, you will have a target on your back while they slowly work on letting you go

Pros

120 Hours of PTO per year is nice, *if* you get hired on completely. Working with people of different ethnicity is nice.

Cons

These people LOVE their temp workers and will keep you that way as long as possible. No bonuses, no PTO/Sick time, no benefits. You can be strung along for up up to 3 years before being hired on. Benefits are lackluster at best. Dental especially is a joke. You will NOT get promoted. Lateral movement at best, and if you like stress you can become a team lead/supervisor. Management feels completely disconnected, focused more on their spreadsheets than boots-on-the-ground input from factory workers. Communication between departments and levels of management is almost nonexistent. Yearly bonuses are unfairly weighted to favor upper management with unrealistic expectations for participation. * Overtime/Weekend work not required but an unwritten expectation that WILL negatively impact your reviews and bonus Abysmal raise rates. So many work stoppages due to terrible supplier relationships Major holidays extended, use PTO to fill time or go unpaid. (No help for temps) Things are such a frantic unorganized mess that you can never tell if you are understaffed or overloaded with work volume. Management engagement with employees feels like required lip service more than genuine interest. HR is virtually useless and will defer work back onto the employees Point system for attendance is weighted to pressure employees to be at work even if its dangerous. Staying anonymous because there will be a talking to in the office otherwise. Feeling completely undervalued/replaceable/disrespected.
