Almost a complete lack of fairness shown to production personnel

Pros

Decent people at the production level, with a lot of time off. Extremely safety conscious atmosphere.

Cons

The plant's upper management has as little contact with production people as possible, sometimes deliberately avoiding them. As mentioned in the title line, fairness is almost totally lacking; i.e., one person in the quality dept. can pick & choose their own hrs, in effect having flex time, but no others in the quality or any other dept can do this without being punished with getting "points" or other punitive measures. This blatant favoritism is witnessed by the entire plant, causing deep resentment against those responsible.

Frustrating - but improving under new leadership

Pros

Flexible working hours - great for family life Great co-workers New leadership is improving the situation but they have a long row to hoe.

Cons

Ineffective leadership in some departments Expensive benefits and compensation is on the low side Minimal training budgets Previous leadership had really cut staffing to a level that does not allow the job to be accomplished in a successful manner. With minimal staffing, tasks are being completely in a sloppy manner or not at all.
