Pros

You can bring your pet to work

Cons

Management does not respect you. Many associates are stagnant and staying in roles longer than they should. This company is very political and respects politics more than intelligence or performance.

Pros

Air conditioned, guaranteed hours. The work load isn't too stressful; if there are problems you have lots of resources to assist. 401k 6% match, benefits include dental and vision, paid vacation straight out the gate. Paid fmla, 6 weeks maternity and praternity leave also paid. With 40 hours paid sick time. Compensation is decent and have a genuine belief the company cares for the safety of its employees.

Cons

Swing shift, period. Advancement is not based on your work ethic, but rather how well you interview. Filling in for a position does not help you get better position, they will hire based of politics, nepotism, etc. Paperwork is the stated king(what gets you in trouble) when production numbers are really all they care about. Hiring people with no experience in leadership is maintained by the good operators who make them look good. Often packaging troubleshooting and maintenance problems go undealt with due to lack of experience. Hire based on paper (degree) not from within.
