Pros

Pay and the benefits are ok for eastern nc

Cons

Poor Senior Management, there is an atmosphere of intimidating and ridiculing team members. Hostile environment fostered by plant management, no team work, too many systems and too much data managing. A lot of people waiting to retire and not helping new members. We are suppose to be on the same team, but managers pit one department against the other to make sure they don't get picked on.

Pros

people are nice. Organized processes.

Cons

too many ropes to cut and too many processes to find out how to do one's job. This makes work more complicated than it has to be. Plus, too many people in management have been there too long. No work life balance even with WFH 2-3 days a week.
