Pros

Room for growth because of how fast the company is going! Great employees to bond with (possibly trauma bond). I feel like being in office hybrid or full time, helps you create friendships more so than work collaborating. There are really good moments which make you proud to be at Whisker, like hearing how fast the company is growing and having the opportunity to wear multiple hats (if you like that)

Cons

Leadership doesn't lead by example, purposely not clear on expectations so they can use it against you later. Dangle promotions in front of you and favor people who are not team players. Leadership was really making it feel like you would only be noticed if you were in office 5 days a week when a lot of us were contracted hybrid. Kinda felt toxic, especially when a good amount of leaders/teams are still fully remote too. I wish I advocated for myself more, my manager always acted like they had my back but then when push came to shove....they really didn't. Just felt like the target was always moving but then they would just paint it as positive/challenges for growth opportunities. Reflecting on my role, I do think I did WAY more than what was expected and what I was compensated for.

Pros

It's a family, a culture that is unique to the manufacturing industry. I have worked in many manufacturing facilities in my career, and Whisker has the most unique culture I have encountered. There are "those" days of course like any place that you feel like pulling your hair out, but, we get through it, help each other and move on. You don't mind going that extera mile for the place because they take care of you. Mangers are flexible and easy to work with and listen. Supervisors, and managers really listen to the associate concerns. And they not only listen, they act on those concerns whenever possible. Whisker is worth the time to check out, maybe become one of the family?

Cons

We do work our share of overtime, but they try to manage it so we can get the time off when needed. Sometimes short staffed, but what facility isn't from time to time. We do all woerk together to move associates to the lines that need help at the time, leads and mangers help out to come up with solutions.
