Pros

Good pay and benefits. Mostly good people. Not all. I would only recommend this facility just for the pay, benefits and nothing else. If you are employed, it would be wise to keep to yourself and choose your friends very carefully. One more thing, don't get too cozy with HR, upper management and the amoral supervisors. They will claim to be your friend at some point. Remember, they are not.

Cons

Human Resources was a joke, didn't follow their own guidelines, and made it up as they went along. The good old boy system was alive and well at the facility. Department heads and supervisors were mediocre at best. Morale was always down. The true trouble markers and poor performers always got away with their antics. What employee on any assembly line in America surfs the internet and listen to music through their hidden headphones (which is a safety hazard) while working? The materials department management and structure was the most atrocious system imaginable. It was always frustrating to see poor performers get promoted, but it was norm their. No matter what, privilege will always be used to punish or promote at this facility.
