Pros

Like the other people say- free coffee.

Cons

Upper management likes to put every worker in fear that you can be fired at any minute. The only way to be converted is to wear skinny jeans and have a beard or what really gets you in is work on the plant managers personal house. If your a women stay away they push them out as fast as they come in and Hr does nothing .(come on Hr and your women) . The turnover is extremely high and will continue until you remove upper management . California really needs to investigate upper management due to the firing of the females and the treatment of employees . Managers are non-visible on the floor and hide at their desk or in their offices . Most of the supervisor are bullies or complete morons that they continue to move around to different departments because they continue to screw up . Stay away
