Pros

There are a ton of nice and competent folks that work at AWC.

Cons

Management from top to bottom is clueless on almost everything. Priorities are misplaced and the business is poorly understood. They rely upon tribal knowledge from folks that have worked only at AWC to ruin a good thing.

The CULTURE at this company sets it apart from others. They not only talk the talk but they walk the walk.

Pros

Direct manager cares and has goals in place to help improve the department. The core team is made up of great people that work well together.

Cons

Seems like the plant director is actively and intentionally making the entire plant worse. Zero accountability for disrespecting hourly workers even when it's brought to management's attention. Supervisors have completely checked out and refuse to provide the help needed for their people to succeed. Nonexistent advancement opportunities unless you go to church with or are friends with certain managers. Cliquey front office and improper use of employee information. Little to no diversity in management roles. There is a single manager that's a POC and he's their most recent hire.
