Pros

Great people to work with

Cons

The bureaucracy is unbelievable. Trying to get equipment samples to customers is a nightmare. There were so many companies that were purchased and assimilated that the processes are complicated and it makes it difficult to do your job and to serve customers.

Pros

We have a good pay scale, and we have some teams out there. We can take pride in knowing we are helping our customers

Cons

They switched our health insurance to one that even the doctors don't like. We have no sick days so you are suppose to use your Vacation time for that. And right now we are feeling that no one is being honest about what is really going on with our plant. We have Supervisors that don't even know what their crews are producing. Never on the floor to know the processes!
