Pros

People work hard trying to help each other survive. Pay and benefits ok. Decent vacation time although 401k match and vesting could be improved (3yrs).

Cons

Endless....no work life balance or consideration of family. Management not supportive at Broomfield site. As mentioned in other reviews the staffing levels are a joke with most people doing work of 2-4 people. Attrition in first half of 2016 averaged 2 people a week outside Ops. Strongly recommend against working here to anyone reading this...just not worth the stress. Site leadership seems to change every couple years so impossible to expect improvement. No recognition of anything and extremely negative work environment. Highly political with most managers not even supporting their own teams. No strategic direction or process improvements.

Pros

Dedicated workforce and great people. Excellent benefits and compensation. The Site gives you the flexibility to develop your career. There's a lot of opportunity at the Broomfield Site.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations to perform and hit volumes with the current headcount. Targets are set without a real understanding of what is needed to succeed. Key talent is bleeding from the Broomfield Site and drastic measures are not taken by Regional or the SLT to address this issue. We are asked to provide suggestions, but they are quickly rejected by the Region. SLT and management are trying to change the culture, but if we don't get the support that is needed to sustain the business, the attrition will continue.
