Pros

the paychecks did not bounce

Cons

They don't value experience of long-term employees. I was part of the original company (EFT Source) before CPI bought them and NOT ONE SINGLE legacy employee ever got promoted - only the new hires. Management is constantly chasing the latest & greatest tech but cannot overcome their problem with system vulnerabilities. They are lying to their governing body (PCI Card Production & PCI DSS) about everything from allowing vendors unaccompanied access to the server room to hiding their Windows patching results on a monthly basis.

Pros

Average pay. Decent benefits. Hybrid work.

Cons

There are "managers" but hardly any "leaders" in the Tennessee Operations. Managers are simply people who stuck around long enough to know more than others and not qualified to lead. 2023 was a difficult year as they had a huge 2022 and knowingly set unachievable goals for 2023, thus not able to hit bonuses for most everyone.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. CPI has established multiple channels for addressing concerns including your direct supervisor, human resources and an anonymous hotline system. I would encourage one of these outlets be utilized so that we can further explore these areas of concern

Remote work and decent salary.

Lack of communication between teams/departments. Middle management is an obstacle to getting projects done or streamlining processes.

CPI has established multiple channels for addressing concerns including your direct supervisor, human resources and an anonymous hotline system which is posted in a variety of locations around the plant and on the CPI payroll homepage. I would encourage one of these outlets be utilized so that we can further explore these areas of concern. We strive to provide an environment where associates feel they’re valued, treated fairly and respected.
