      Pros

      Pay/Benefits Chik-Fil-A couple times a week.

      Cons

      HORRIBLE working conditions/SUFFOCATING HEAT/FREEZING COLD. Very loud, poor air quality, LOUD, WHOLLY INCOMPETENT "leadership" from top down. RACIST against whites..most there are the laziest,sorriest no-count people you could imagine. Going to a terrible 4on/4 off swing shift...gonna be the downfall of the place. Leadership blames everyone but themselves for all the problems & troubles. Worst, most out o date equipment to work with Ive ever seen in 30 years plus of manufacturing experience. Lines run wide open to make up for downtime and other ongoing problems. The place is losing experienced help almost weekly..many of us there for years have left..more to follow.

      Stable company, broad technologies, dedicated employees, good benefits, many career options if you want to pursue

      Slower than some customers need for innovation, too many reorganizations resulting in loss of some key talent, some managers promoted without leadership skills
