Pros

* Free pet food. * $15 dollar and hour starting wage.

Cons

* No training structure. They just toss you on the line with a random associate. There's a reason people have lasted as little as a day before walking out. * The schedule rotates by 8 hours every 3 weeks. So you are constantly tired and trying to adjust to a new sleeping schedule. * The corporate level is so horribly mismanaged they never know what their production schedule is going to be until the last possible moment. * Holidays are canceled last minute at such a recurring frequency that people are genuinely surprised when the site shuts down on days like Memorial Day. * Management waits until the last possible moment to inform people that they have to cancel their holiday plans. * Management is in a constant state of putting out fires, never having created a stable way of running the factory. * They have no real method of solving problems. If an issue occurs, management's fix is to add a line to an SOP or make a new one point lesson, which they will show you once, never to be seen again. Of course they don't hesitate to discipline you for not remembering one of the dozen different documents they've only shown you once. * The place is trashed and genuinely gross to be in. Corporate doesn't know of course, because before each visit management institutes mandatory overtime to get everyone to spend a week frantically cleaning every inch of the place. * Because management is such a mess, safety issues are not addressed until someone get's hurt. Ask people why guarding suddenly exists on the packaging lines. That was reactive, not proactive. * Site security is a joke. The gate rarely works and you can just wander into the locker room.
