Pros

Good $, Excellent Benefits Package and Insurance

A lot of hands on work, at one point in time they hired just about anybody to fill positions. People with no experience or education. It shows.

Pros

decent pay and benefits.

Cons

Management is slowly chipping away at our benefits and pay each union contract. They seem to want to micro manage the production floor thinking they know what is best for the production workers without consulting us for our option on changes that effect us on a day to day basis. Promotions based off who you know not on merit. Right now its a slow sinking ship with no sign that this plant can save itself. Much much more is wrong it would be a book. It starts at the top of management down to the production floor.

Pros

The benefits and pay are top notch! The production and team and co-workers are kind helpful and considerate people. Lab manager always kept an open mind and Safety officer was quick to implement suggestions.

Cons

Summer shut-down forces you to use PTO and if you don't have any, you're not going to be paid.
