Decent benefits but poor hygiene and low pay

Manufacturing operator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits and decent schedules.

Cons

When they gave me a locker, it had mouse poop in it, which was a very bad first impression. The break room is filthy in the mods area. A lot of co-workers have very poor hygiene and it does offend. The training scheduling is very disorganized and management does not seem to give it any importance. The starting pay is very low. Very male-dominated environment (especially older white men).
