Bad management all around

Pros

Good benefits, good immediate supervisor, good pay.

Cons

Everyone is paid the same for that position regardless of work ethic. Almost all of the supervisors are awful, no consistency with plant policies, all supervisors choose favorites and treat everyone else bad. All supervisors have been at plant for 20 plots years and are burnt out waiting to retire so they just don’t want anyone to rock their boat even if the change is good, they just want to keep their favorites happy and leave the hard workers out to dry. Only reason why people stay long term is because of lag and benefits, just about everyone hates working there.

Pros

Great camaraderie amongst colleagues from the same team. work harmony used to be great amongst cross functional teams

Cons

Sometimes Management could get a bit caught up in their own world. The company lost touch on how to work well and efficiently towards the same goal. It also lost the small company culture and feel it had even though being a large company
