Pros

Provides great benefits and pay is good and fair.

Cons

Can be very toxic work environment ;very political. Higher ups do not care about its employees. In days notice will tell you no work for a week without pay or will send you home without pay when machines are down. Sudden schedule change without sensible notice. Highschool click environment advancement seems to be based on who you know not what you know.

Pros

The pay can be good.

Cons

They lie to you in the interviews and in training. Then try to push you or add details or requirements after the fact. Some of which is arguable if the company actually has policies for. Very Long hours, it's hard to get breaks. The plant management loves to push product whether it sales or not just so they can get their bonuses. It's very much a "you vs them" dynamic. There is very little training yet receive very high expectations. If you can't handle it, "you're just not meant for the job" or "you're not cut out for it" They have atleast 5 people quit a month.
