Pros

The facility is clean and most of the staff are nice and enjoyable to work with. There are some great leaders amongst a sea of bad.

Cons

Management from top to bottom is running this company into the ground. Upper level management is addicted to making very poor financial decisions and site level technical management has zero accountability or interest in managing talent. There has been a very high turnover rate for technical talent, leaving most areas short staffed and underperforming. There is zero initiative to achieve any level of success other than the absolute lowest form of mediocrity at this facility. There is a definite "We can't do this" attitude. This is mostly so old guard members can keep living the highs of their successes from 15 years ago. Old guard staff are toxic and abusive and will accost you with zero consequence. Critical members of management are beyond retirement age and fall asleep during meetings or in their office. The plant manager has decided this is all acceptable behavior. There is almost no experience or outside thought in the key players that run this failing echo chamber. Very high turnover rate for technical staff yet management still blames the employees and refuses to take any accountability for the total lack of vision or interest in managing talent. The manufacturing equipment is mostly an outdated house of cards, completely farmed out with almost zero IP left. Despite utilizing ancient control and mechanical systems, with primitive machine designs from two decades again, management believes they are pushing the limits of technology. It is hard to imagine competing on a world class level with this kind of leadership. The plummeting stock price and exodus of talent would suggest it's not working.
