Pros

Not an extremely difficult place to work. Union facility. You can wear shorts at the apporiate length and listen to music while on the job. In the summer they give free popsicles, rags, and little gatorades to help keep cool. They reward on occasion and have special events such as a cook out or christmas party.

Cons

Medical insurance isn't the greatest. Lots of mandatory overtime (could be a good thing too.) Hot factory.

People-oriented company

Business Outlook

Pros

They are very people-oriented that gives back to the community and those in need. The leadership team is made up of good, honest people. Strong on innovation. Four weeks of vacation for everyone, even new hires. Directors and some managers still get a car allowance.

Cons

Recent reorg to a global structure now has too many leaders that are difficult to reach and less engaged in regional issues. This drives added cost in an environment where they are cutting back everything else. Haven't had a bonus in two almost years. Merit increases were put on hold as well.
