Pros are keep getting few each year

Upper management doesn't realize that the lower management is forcing the employee to be unsafe. Plus management doesn't realize the pay is not equaling out to other jobs available

terrible leadership

Machine operator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits and insurance. Has potential to grow since it's a big company

Cons

Terrible leadership, hired people by friends rather than qualification. The leaderships and their friends have privileges over others. It likes in High School: there are cool kids, and there are others.
