Pros

Many different types of projects at each location means that you have huge flexibility on the industry you become familiar with. Pay is above average and benefits are the best I have ever had. No complaints there. As long as you pull your weight, you have a pretty easy time and everyone is happy to help if you need it. Most people stay in their lanes and managers typically do not micro manage. Great work life balance with flexible schedules available. Never expected to work over time unless you put yourself into a position that you need to do it.

Cons

Upper management is somewhat out of touch with on the floor activities. There is not much automation and lots of manual assembly processes. There are an overwhelming number of proprietary software systems and websites that are needed to be successful and there is not much official guidance on how to navigate them. The orientation duration is not long enough and not tailored to different departments but is generic.

Pros

Very friendly, as close to family as a company can get. Extremely large, so support exists for any task, even if not on site.

Cons

Long over burdened processes for capital to produce quality goods, on time. Pay for talent is lower than industry average

Pros

Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) were quite good.

Cons

Flex tolerates a toxic work culture from their most senior leaders. My director, literally, yelled at me daily, usually throughout the day. He physically grabbed me and forced me in the direction he wanted me to move. He threatened to fire me or replace me at least once a week. I went to the then director of HR who did absolutely nothing. After she was let go I went to her successor who told me there was no record of me speaking with HR before. And she did nothing. Unable to tolerate the work environment, I left. The company doesn't take safety seriously. We had shelving collapse resulting in an employee needing medical attention. The person tasked with designing and building storage has no training, no mechanical background, and no analysis is being performed to validate if the storage can hold 1,000+ pounds. There's no budget for professionally designed storage and, again, I was threatened for raising this as a concern. I learned today this same director is continuing to use me as a scapegoat despite me no longer working there.
