Pros

Pay is fantastic. Every employee is included in monthly business meetings keeping us up to date and informed on our model and products. It's a great place to learn about the general mechanics of operation and expand your business knowledge. For the most part, the people working with you are friendly, inclusive, and genuinely want the company to succeed. Union contracts have set a solid foundation for stability and benefits.

Cons

Due to continuous budget constraints, a large portion of the automation is barely managing to hold on or broken and forgotten. Due to a wide variety of factors, employees are completely overworked on every level. Involuntary overtime has been consistent since the beginning of the pandemic. Failing equipment means manpower is used to fill in the gaps, exacerbating the worker shortage. Union benefits are slowly corroding with each contract under the guise of current employees being grandfathered in. Union protections are very good at keeping everyone employed, including people who shouldn't be.

Pros

Great Benefits, Great Coworkers, Cafe at HQ

Cons

Position was eliminated following 10 years of dedicated service, with no transition placement or internal employment opportunities provided. I also don't believe the company knows or understands it's own culture.
