      This was the worst experience of my life.

      Pros

      The money was great, with the promise of increase once I was certified. Getting certified takes months, and trainees are expected to learn too quickly. The money was great, and the people were great. That's where the good stuff ends!

      Cons

      The training program is virtually non existent. If you can manage to struggle through and attain certification, you will be rewarded, but beware...only the strongest survive. High turnover rate. One half hour unpaid lunch break in a 9+ hour shift. Mandatory overtime, usually 6 days a week during the SLOW period.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      The ability to work with collaborative robotics, helping to integrate them into existing and new automation equipment, and helping develop new robotics applications.

      Cons

      Poor leadership. Top management lacks good communication with the Innovations (robotics) Team. The CEO of the company demands that his ideas be implemented without question, and verbally attacks anyone who disagrees with him, no matter how logical and solid their disagreement with the idea is. Direction of focus changes from day-to-day; sometimes hour-to-hour. First new applications are demanded, then supporting existing applications becomes the focus. Anyone spending time in the Robotics Lab attempting to develop new applications or new tooling is quickly told to get 'out on the floor' to provide support for the robots already working. The Robotics & Automation Specialist position is supposed to be for designing the new tooling and applications, NOT constantly supporting the robots on the production floor. Time and again, the Team is asked to put on a "Dog and Pony Show" for the "ownership", during which EVERY robot is put on the production floor doing any task so that when the owners of the company walk through, they are 'impressed' with how many of the robots are being put to use. The reality is that on a normal production day, an average of 3 to 5 robots are being utilized.

      Pros

      The willingness and continued work effort of the packers. They are the overworked, underpaid heart of the company. Many of them, 90% or better have little or no education, are aliens in this country and rely heavily on the temp agencies and Praxis for security of employment. Their goal(s) can be summed up in one word " honor". They are nor honored at Praxis they are mistreated and used until they are of no use. Praxis M.O. for all their employees.

      Cons
