Business outlook

Pros

Team=Family. Decent PTO. Employees are given incredible discounts and opportunities to win free knives. Decent company culture. MGMT expresses appreciation in various company-culture events like chili cookoff, halloween costume contest, xmas party, etc.

Cons

Training is messy and actually dangerous. Leadership = good people, but scatterbrained and stretched thin. New staff aren't shown knife safety. HR tends to hire anyone, even the obvious human-liability. Super high turnover as well. The norm is "hire 5, hope 1 stays."
