Pros

growing company with multiple facilities, very involved in their community, employees are very tenured

Cons

Very top heavy, management and above bring in all the money. They promote a family friendly oriented work environment which is a straight lie management is very out of touch with their employees and do not make any efforts when it comes to working with employees with family issues. The "culture" does not apply to regular employees and HR just tells you "it's your manager's discretion". Management changed our titles from Operations to support which is a demotion and we had no say in this matter.

Pros

Salary is good, office is nice

Cons

MSC has a new CEO and several external executive leaders who have joined the organization with a clear vision to transform the business. The people are genuinely good and committed, but many of the company’s systems, distribution processes, and technology are significantly outdated. The company recognizes the need for transformation, which is why it has brought in experienced external leadership. However, there appears to be a gap between the transformation vision and the level of investment required to execute it. Large-scale initiatives often face resource and funding constraints, making it difficult to move at the pace needed
