Pros

Fellow co-workers were all good to work with

Cons

Not the best Medical insurance, all about the Shareholders now. HR deceived me about my duties. Told me what shift I was going to be on, which turned out to be untrue. Deceived me about having to work Holidays and hide the fact the position required On-Call Cell phone duties.

Challenges with manufacturing salt can cause controlled chaos at times when plants do not function to capacity. Customers frustrated with service levels.

Pros

The plant is close to home. In general the salt business is steady, no wild swings like the automotive sector.

Cons

The company has been on a long term downhill run. Too many different owners all trying to wring more profits. The recent acquisition by Stone Canyon may well push Morton over the cliff of no return. Always the rally cry of needing to do more with less. Then there's the constant erosion of pay and benefits; pension gone, defined contribution gone, and healthcare costs go up. Used to be a good place to work.
