Pros

decent pay, decent hours, not much else other than that

Cons

This was at GM in Wentzville, it feels like high school all over again, a bunch of grown adults gossiping amongst themselves about others, supervisors talking about how bad their bosses are in front of all the other employees, employees and bosses talking about how bad the company itself is, toxic work environment, they can and will force you to work extra hours(4 hours before your scheduled shift, and 4 hours extra on your shift you are on, so dont make plans, or have family stuff you have to attend, I was forced multiple times within a week because the employees there dont like to show up for work. The training here is trash, they train you on multiple post in one week, they expect you to retain all the information they shove down your throat after doing the post for one day with a trainer, the recruiters are extremely vague with compensation such as benefits, they dont tell you that you can be forced when they hire you, and they will probably hire you on the spot and have you take a drug test on the spot, which is nothing but a mouth swab, they seem like they just want robots and bodies, their HR team is full of heartless corporate types that dont care or value employees as people, I felt like nothing to management, the people there will smile in your face and then stab you in the back the moment they have a chance, it felt like multiple employees missed the sexual harrassment section of the training, because I heard multiple comments there that were MAJOR hostile work environment/toxic/sexual innuendos that have no place in the work place. this company is based out of California, and it shows within their training. My advice would be to stay far far far away from this company if you are approached by a recruiter.

Pros

They advertise diversity. They'll hire anyone. Not necessarily a positive.

Cons

Inter-Con is a corporate shell game, where every spoke in the wagon wheel is responsible for a different facet of the business (hiring, training, payroll, etc.) and no one seems to know what they are doing. Every single employee I have worked with has had a pay discrepancy. Several co-workers were given insufficient quantities or ill-fitting elements of their uniform, and told to buy their own, if they didn't have enough. Several employees were charged for uniforms that were suppose to be free. Inter-Con has spent months refusing to meet with our union, (because they have been running roughshod over the tentative contractual agreement in place) Inter-Con constantly hires new people, to cover shifts of full-time employees, so say goodbye to any overtime. Employees are being penalized by an arbitrary star system, which is suppose to punish unreliable employees, not tarnish the record of employees using a personal day, for personal reasons. Employees have been told that their excuse for missing work was not good enough. Every facet of what we do is organized by apps, and on cell phones. Inter-Con seems to have no sense whatsoever about the tasks and duties of an employee in the automotive industry.
