Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear you did not have a great experience. We try to offer solutions to the heat - cold water stations, breaks throughout your shift. We feel lucky to be able to continue to make products that still have a strong demand. Our number one priority is keeping employees safe and we are social distancing inside the plants, so it's not always easy to see our friendly, smiling faces! If you have anything you'd like to discuss, please email: HRSC@novolex.com

Pros

Good work/life balance, working 7 days out of a fortnight. Nice sign on bonus, and quick climbing up the experience ladder into other positions. I've seen people go from entry level positions to material handling and other such work in as little as a six months. We need people who can operate and communicate professionally under stress. if that's you, this may be a very good career opportunity. I would like to note also that management has done an exceptional job in working with the crew during this Covid-19 crisis, and would like to thank the plant manager for his rational decisions which have positively affected both the morale of the workers and undoubtedly the health of us and our families.

Cons

positions other than packing require much tolerance for stress, cool tempered, well spoken people do well here. hot-heads don't.
