Pros

Good pay And great benifits

Cons

i work a 12 hour shift and I am so sick of managers or supervisor coming in doing half there work and than leaving mid shift becuase of comp time I didn't know if a supervisor worked 2 extra hours a day they are suppose to take off 4 hours the next day there is only one supervisor that actually doesn't do this he answers his phone calls when we need help and goes on his computer to assist us all the time if need be. He might have a few issues but he is at least attempting to be a supervisor he should be a manager he is great.

Pros

Best environment I have ever worked in, you can tell that Poet cares about its employees, I enjoyed going to work.

Cons

You need to be able to pick up on things quickly, the job involves a lot of going with the flow and figuring things out.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. At POET, we are committed to maintaining a professional workplace where team members are treated with respect and where clear expectations, accountability, and confidentiality are core standards across our operations. We also want to clarify that team member compensation and personnel records are maintained within secure electronic HR systems rather than physical documents, and access to that information is strictly restricted in accordance with company policy. The situation described does not align with the processes we have in place to protect confidential information. Individual experiences can vary, and we encourage team members to raise questions or concerns through the appropriate internal channels so they can be reviewed and addressed in a timely and constructive way. Our focus remains on supporting a collaborative, purpose-driven environment where team members can contribute, grow, and succeed. — POET
