Awful culture!

Pros

Good benefit . Vacation time is the only reason I stay at this place

Cons

Management, lack of principles, dont respect people on the floor opinions. Making rules up on the fly. Different standards for floor workers and office workers. No work life balance! Unless you work in the office you get treated like crap. Encouraging (Forcing) people to give the company high Mark's on their gallup survey. Get Marks against you even if the punch clock dont work. I'm pretty sure they will find out who I am an fire me instead of fixing their problems!

Pros

Easy work, free candy,decent pay Becoming a professional thumb twiddler

Cons

1. Bored, nothing is challenging.My role sucks 2. Don’t respect engineering degrees, many “engineers” don’t have degrees....and are getting paid more than people with degrees 3. Very very very unorganized, to me the culture is just a bunch of people collecting a paycheck running up overtime and not doing much work. 5. Throw people at the problem instead of engineering a solution 6. NO processes are standardized
