Pros

It’s great when it’s great. You will fell special when you first start, they may even give you bonuses and encourage growth and provide guidance and mentors. For a brief time, you’ll feel the work you do has a positive impact and you’re making a difference

Cons

You’re a number, no matter what labor grade or position. If eliminating your position results in shareholder value they will do it. Been with the company for 15 years? Great, you’re laid off because you’re paid too much and it’s easier to just let you go and make the people who worked for your pick up your responsibilities with no increase in pay and/or title. They do not care about you, never get comfortable and since COVID layoffs every single year.

Pros

40 hr/wk Easy work for the pay Ability to use vacation with little notice Some leadership is willing to help you move up and increase pay quickly

Cons

Leadership does not communicate with one another Little room to move up or into another department without someone leaving Poor standards in comparison to other sites within the company Employees who do not meet efficiency standards receive no consequences and are not informed of process issues (leadership issue) Tribal knowledge seems to run the site, not standard work It is a family affair.
