Pros

There’s no pros for this company

Cons

The job under trains you, and they also discriminate against black people!!! This is a horrible jobs for African Americans and if you receive the $1000 sign on bonus but you don’t work there for a year, they’ll ask you to pay it back! It’s 12hr shifts but you only get paid 80hrs every two weeks which after taxes it’s only like 900. This job isn’t worth the long hours and the constant disrespect from the machine operators
