Pros

Pay (depends on the role)

Cons

CEO appears to be non-existent. Morton targets a major competitor employees to fill leadership roles. Morton does not often promote from within unless the person previously worked for the specific major competitor. Communication is almost non-existent. You find out people have been let go when you email them and receive a message saying to contact someone else. Turnover is horrendous. It seems like every week more people who seemingly are doing a good job are let go. Long time employees are dismissed without a legitimate reason. It appears that Supply Chain, Quality, and HR have people involuntarily and voluntarily leaving at a high rate. Employees appear to be working out of fear of losing their jobs, not out of the joy of doing something purposeful. Not all. The operator level employees jobs seem fairly safe.
