Pros

The Floor Workers at the Mcbee Plant for the most part are good people, you will always find Moles, snoops, or whatever in such a Crowd, but I believe overall, the Blue Collar workers there are a Good Bunch

Cons

Depends on what side you are on, I saw the priority shift as I said from Employee based to Customer based, which is good at first, but I have inside Knowledge that there is a strong environment of fear being propagated there at that plant, people are afraid to critcize for fear of reprisal, I know, cause I was reprised on

Pros

Great employee benefits, not just health and dental, but beyond that. Great employees in general. Work life balance is perfect.

Cons

No complaints really, except for not always having enough work to do.

Pros

I absolutely loved my job and I was really good at it. Friendly environment. Opportunity/Room for growth.

Cons

Unforgiving point system that is definitely not formed with mother's in mind. I lost a lot of points because my kid's bus was running behind. My last point was because a deer totaled my car. I even abandoned my car immediately and tried to make it to work on time because I was more worried about points instead of the wreck. I was told I could apply again in 6 months by HR and then I found out that was a complete lie.(after WAITING for 6 months)
