Pros

Weekly pay, decent benefits and a few good coworkers are the only reason this job gets three stars from me.

Cons

The lack of professionalism is beyond challenging. The culture is insidious and great workers see no need to make a career here. I personally do not feel valued and that is just the tip of the iceberg. Management has senior employees tattle telling on other adults, while the people doing all the telling run amuck. The culture is one where great workers will be thrown under the bus.

Pros

Some of if not most people are friendly and supportive. Okay-ish benefits. Slightly better than the average I would say. Flexible hours for flex40 and salary people. In my particular case, they are very flexible when it comes to doctor appointments and kids' activities.

Cons

Emotional and mental damage from a toxic environment. Gossip galore and everyone is eager to point fingers or say "not my job". Managers who literally yell and curse at employees. Everyone is overworked and underappreciated. Sexism runs rampant. Communication between mangers, departments, and floor operators is non-existent. FAVORITISM EVERYWHERE! Certain people are treated differently because they are "in" with the right people in management. No one is treated equally. The machinery on the floor is old and falling apart.
