Pros

In overall is a ok company specially if this the first job with benefits

Cons

There are very long hours, lots of driving, weekends with no overtime or bonus for the extra work, if you like to work 60 or more hours a week this is he job for you. I wonder how is well recognize company when they abuse of the employes, yea they give you a good "salary" but at the end you are making 7 dls and hr. somebody need to investigate this. Everybody of my coworkers said the same thing but nothing happens

Pros

*Some interesting technical problems to solve *Schuman campus is beautiful with a pond, wooded area, and wild turkeys! *Opportunity for lateral and upwards moves *Not just a chemical company

Cons

*Typical large company bureaucracy *Decision by committee seemed to be the standard *IT is too overbearing with their policies hurting productivity *Reactionary culture - Management jumps at what competition has, not what the customer actually needs. *Terrible vacation policy (10 days/year for first 5 years) *Bad ideas make it way too far through the development cycle before they are canned.

Pros

Great people to work with and great experience. You get a company vehicle.

Cons

Pay does not equal the amount of work. If you don't sell an initiative for the quarter you get written up. If you sell it, you install it. This includes small to very large dishmachines. I am not a certifed plumber or a certified electrician but yet I am expected to know how to install equipment that requires both. Dirty environment to work in. Laying on back and on my hands and knees in a restaurant kitchen. Come home sweaty all the time. The boxes just keep piling up in my house.
