Pros

Decent pay, that's about it

Cons

Nearly everything. I imagine it varies from plant to plant but this is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about employees at all even though they preach about us being one big family. Work nearly every weekend, and every single holiday often times working 12 hours a day so if you have friends, family, or anything outside of work that you enjoy doing or seeing then this place is not for you. No matter how hard you work or how hard you try to make production goals it is never good enough. We are never recognized for anything good but the minute we make a mistake or our numbers fall off you'll be sure to hear about it.

Pros

Great pay, easy work, plenty of hours.

Cons

Some of the people who work in the warehouses are lazy and they have the so called manager wrapped around their finger, So you end up doing their job and yours. The manager won’t do anything because he is just as lazy as the warehouse guy. And is scared of the consequences if he actually does his job and disciplines the sorry ———‘s So the real workers are the only ones that suffer. That very manager told me two weeks before becoming the manager over the shipping department that he didn’t think he would become the manager because he had already told the other managers that we have to stop over working our real workers to cover up for our non workers. I told him that night he would be the same way as soon as he got the position, And if he did that I would be the first to tell him. Point being: If you are a lazy piece of trash and have no self respect or work ethics this is the place for you. Bad thing is that you can not get in touch with anyone that has any interest in cleaning up (this particular terminal ) of a very good company.
