Pros

Wonderful co-workers and interesting work

Cons

Lack of management interest in workforce. They are all about their own bonuses at the expense of the business and the rest of the employees.

Pros

There really are no pros at this time. It is like a sinking ship.

Cons

The good old boy mentality from the CEO down to his COO, Quality & Production Management team are running the place into the ground. No raises, no balance of family and work life, benefits going up with terrible health coverage. Lots of bullying going on and nobody does anything about it. Wants the community to think this is a great place to work when indeed it is just the opposite.

Another dead end job

Pros

Good people on the floor. Hard working trying to make good product. I would advise if you are a skilled person then look elsewhere. Unless you have family working here or enjoy cliques you won't like it here. Ideal place to work if you can't find anything else or are just looking for a paycheck.

Cons

Bad management, cliques and nepotism is strong, wasteful spending on making management comfortable while production works with outdated tools and technology. High out of pocket for benefits, low to no raises or incentives for production. No growth incentive. It's a "do all you can do for the company while we walk all over you" environment.
