Good opportunity, but company should be more together

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Some very hard working members in each department. Good benefits and competitive salary for entry level positions. Provided a few avenues for growth

Cons

Quite a few people in positions that they are not prepared for (from a managerial and basic skill set standpoint). No type of emphasis on employee morale besides a few generic food opportunities and outings. Top management seems extremely disconnected from pressing issues. Training and business process was all over the place

It's all about the money

Business Outlook

Pros

They do a lot of leadership and development training and have food brought in a lot.

Cons

No one really looks at talent. It's a good ol boys club all the way from Corporate to the Plants. They have a review system in place where you basically have to sell yourself, but it doesn't matter what you've actually accomplished. Unless you are on the right side of the politics, you may as well just sit back and enjoy at least the pay check because you will never get recognized or promoted. The CEO only wants entry level college kids hired who will only stay 5 yrs or less and wants all of the older seasoned talent out. It costs too much for benefits in the long run. (not kidding)
