      Pros

      The pay is good. The skill set taught is a good one to have.

      Cons

      You are a number. You will work countless hours while management complains from the comfort of their homes. Nothing will properly get fixed and will be a constant issue for all departments. Safety is key, but only when convenient for production numbers. Communication is very poor between management personnel. You will be belittled on a daily basis. There is absolutely zero care about the hourly employees well-beings.

      Pros

      A couple Managers are really great.

      Cons

      Upper management is great at giving employees extra tasks that are actually another full time job, which turn into their regular duties. This has created burn out and causes the employees to be disengaged.

      Pros

      It is very flexible, lots of managers are encouraging, the business is great for networking, good pay, lots of opportunities for progression, Hanson will put you through pretty much any training if it supports your progression or enhances your ability to do your role.

      Cons

      Lower level staff morale is lacking: I think due to the very steep hierarchy, lots of the middle management feels a bit unnecessary, a few less steps up the ladder would make lower level staff feel better able to communicate and have more power. Certain managers are very unprofessional. The values of the business are seen as a bit of a joke in certain areas of the business, as they do not make their way down to the bottom line.
