Pros

Good benefits, first shift hours are good, overtime is available all year round, located 2 minutes from the toll way in kenosha, wisconsin.

Cons

Often have mandatory Saturday and Sunday work. Ninety percent of the people that work there speak mainly spanish. You spend your first half hour trying to get the tools you need to do your job.

Pros

The company is growing steadily. They are hiring new people in many departments, they are building a new facility on grounds with room for expansion. They are purchasing new equipment to supplement existing. We grew beyond capacity in our current building and cannot continue to grow where we are. Several very smart business decisions have recently been made regarding sourcing of materials. It expands our potential for growth even further. As we are growing the leadership is trying to formalize certain policies and procedures that were more casual before. But with so many people, so much work flow, we cannot be casual anymore. It is helping to establish boundaries and rules. The office culture is fairly casual, though the newest hires are less so. Perhaps the leadership is leaning toward a more traditional work environment.

Cons

Poor interdepartmental communication, too little accountability, one department holds too much control, not enough personnel to handle the work load. This is the culture of the company and it creates an enormous amount of stress. Instead of working together, everyone looks out only for themselves. The new training manager is trying to break through this culture with some of the seminars he has presented, but it hasn't affected the culture yet. There have been some encouraging signs lately, only time will tell.
