Pros

Decent pay, solid insurance but switching to a new provider next year so that could change and there are some pretty good people that work there.

Cons

12 hours schedule is a disaster, HR is a joke, work/life balance on night shift is non existent, constant management changes, over spending on new equipment with no acknowledgment that it takes skill people to run it, no training plan in place and the list could go on indefinitely, Overall this place is good for a decent paycheck and that is about it.

Pros

Great people, strong brands, and a lot of ownership. I’ve had opportunities to manage large spend portfolios, lead cross-functional projects, and work with teams across Supply Chain, Finance, Quality, and R&D. The company invests in development and provides exposure to senior leadership that can help accelerate your career.

Cons

Performance and rewards don’t always feel aligned. High performers can sometimes feel underappreciated, and career advancement can be slower than expected due to organizational complexity and internal politics. Decision-making can also take longer than it should because of the number of stakeholders involved.
