Pros

Compensation is in line with the market and in some cases above average; good medical and dental benefits that are comprehensive and affordable; good opportunities for growth within the company; flexible hours and a nice working environment; managers that encourage employees to learn more and advance in the company; managers that truly care for their employees

Cons

Organization changes often and communications about changes still needs improvement; employee morale is down but will improve with time if new management works to unite their teams; cross-functional communication and cooperation definitely needs improvement

Pros

The employees at the plant.

Cons

The employees at corporate have no clue where their paycheck comes from (aka manufacturing) and therefore provide no support. The company places too much on factory managers and continue to add more. Senior managers make poor business decisions. Employees are not happy. They have had too many lay offs (3 rounds in 2 years at various levels due to "re-structuring" and lack of business demand). There is too much turn over in management due to the issue previously mentioned and they have a hard time keeping good managers due to overloading them. There is no room for growth and no career plan to help you grow at the factory level. The plant is very old and poses a significant safety hazard.
