Pros

The off days are great. Basically worked 2 weeks in a month and off the other 2 weeks. Unless mandatory OT kicks in. The supervisors seem to care about what the employees want but those are the only members of management who care about the employees. Decent pay

Cons

Lots of favortism. Everyone not treated the same. The management team (besides the supervisors) are a joke. All of them. Has the slightest idea how to run a production plant and are not qualified to do what upper management wants them to do. Tries to run the floor from the office and through email but does not come on the floor. No good HR department.

Pros

none that i can think of

Cons

York plant has had 8 managers in 5 years and constantly maintains a ~65% turnover rate with managers and HR leaving just as fast as hourly employees. Mandatory OT is back to an all time high, expect your normal 4 day, 48 hour week with an extra 12-24 hours per week
