Great benefits and pay....sacrifice any semblance of a normal life

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits, insurance are great. Pay is good and there is plenty of overtime, almost too much available most of the year. Mindless work most of the time

Cons

Culture in the factory is terrible especially for new employees-most of the veteran employees are almost aggressively mean to new employees. Management doesn't exist they stay in their offices and never get a sense of what is going on with employees in the factory. They are driven by production numbers and everything revolves around that regardless of if your machines do not operate well. Overtime can be almost too much you can potentially work over 30 days straight without a day off. Job can by physically demanding as well. You are required to work overtime so forget making plans a week in advance. Great place to work if you are single or hate your spouse/family.
