Pros

Casual dress code, near mall.

Cons

Very small shop, job position was misrepresented, somewhat unethical. Expensive and flimsy concept but has investor money backing it. Micromanaging, lurk over your shoulder style management.

Pros

Free lunch wasn't bad but its like eating gas station processed food every day

Cons

Management expected entirely way too much, they would literally sit in the office in the warm watch you on camera then call you or someone nearer you on a radio to criticize you while your on the floor busting your bottom for them

Pros

Pay seems to be above average. Fair benefits along with some unique benefits Job is stress free. Rotating schedule creates a lot of time off (you work 183 days of the year at work compared to the 260 days of a 5 day work week or 208 days of a 4 day work week. Prioritizes safety and food safety. Makes a commitment to self sustainability and recycling.

Cons

Most of these cons are attributed to the Ennis, Texas site being new and are growing pains. Company attempts to let on as a progressive/unique style of employer but is still stuck in a original corporate style of employment. Massive lack of communication at all levels Disorganized, lacks proper job resources like documentation, proper schematics, parts management, scheduling confidence, proper training is The companys Core values are integrity, innovation, respect, teamwork, partnership, results, and environmental stewardship but lack the very important value of ACCOUNTABILITY and it shows. Management and leadership in Ennis (not supervisors) lack proper leadership skills, fundamental understanding of succesful manufacturing process, floor experience, adaptive resolution and concern from employee feedback. No team building events, company picnics, Christmas dinners etc.
