Pros

- Nice & Supportive coworkers - Plant manager is very nice & is a down to earth guy that is easy to work for & is extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of the whole production process. —Free food & snacks every day for all employees.

Cons

- Pay was low for the amount of work and tasks the job entailed. - I have noticed they are now offering starting rates up to $28 an hour with a $2,500-$2,800 sign on bonus, which is $10 more an hour than the starting rate was 4 months ago with no sign on bonus.

Pros

Growth potential is exponential. Currently 1 plant, with a second one right next door on the way. 12 hour shifts, with a 24/7 production schedule. Expansion plans could be endless. Above average staff on day and night shift between the departments. Hard working teams on the floor; most people seem to thoroughly enjoy their job. Benefits and bonuses are great. Salary is so-so, for a supervisor. Quite a bit of freedom in the direction you want to run your department, as long as what needs to get done...gets done.

Cons

Some department front-line management is overbearing at times, and seems to be on a power-trip. It's noticeable and permeates throughout the plant. Redundancy is an issue - seems there are multiple levels to reports, duties, meetings, etc. Not quite sure how some people got hired here.
