Pros

It is a great company where employees are valued. Employees are rewarded based on performance. So a good, hard worker with lots of initiative will find a very favorable environment for lots of personal and professional growth. Their commitment to people is deep. Letting an employee go, or a group of employees, is only ever done as a very last resort. The benefits package is one of the best, and it is still mostly paid for by the company. There are many opportunities for special recognition and reward. The bonus program is based on performance of the company as well as the employee.

Cons

It is a corporation. So some of the same problems of red tape and policy slowdowns that exist at other corporations exist here. Also, being a corporation, there are some silo'd groups within the organization. But upper management has been working to resolve those silo issues for the past few years. While a motivated and talented person will find the performance based atmosphere very beneficial, someone just looking for a place to collect a paycheck will find an environment that moves and adapts quickly. If you are looking for a repetitive, predictable task job, you won't find what you are looking for here. Be prepared for new adventures and challenges every few weeks.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
