Pros

None. Literally...there are none besides a small paycheck. It is not worth it. Unless unemployment is your only option, this place is not for you.

Cons

Pay, Scheduled weekends and holidays and up to 8 days in a row without a day off, Never have two days off in a row, Employee Drama, lack of leadership and communication. I found cheaper health and dental insurance on my own for my family! Do not let them talk you into thinking there is ANY benefit to them. Also, they will decline all the PTO requests because there are not enough staff to cover for you. Then, later they will only let you carry over so many hrs at the end of the year and schedule these PTO days for you! You will be working every weekend and they will give you a Tuesday or Wednesday off. Not a benefit! I received a "raise" for less than .10 cents and have never had a review...this is true! LOL! They start people out on $13-$14 dollars an hour. You will work over time to try and complete the ridiculous amount of work they give to you and be told not to work over time which is "code" for "work overtime but don't think about charging the company for these hours".

Pros

Family owned, owners care about employees. Excellent collaborative work environment. Excellent stability among key talented staff, long term President, CFO, HR Director, IT Director, Construction Manager and Accounting team. This longevity speaks to the quality of the company and its ethical business culture.

Cons

In the past five years the size of our company has doubled. This has created growth challenges for all departments. Striking the correct balance between on boarding new employees into our organization while at the same time recognizing our existing employees excellent work will continue to be an area we strive to improve.

Brand new state of the art building located next to forest preserve

Cons

Blair Nagel is a narcissistic, overbearing, hot headed jerk. He treats his employees as third rate citizen's and makes everyone's work life miserable.
