Well run organization. Salary good. Good severance package when they closed our facility.

Constance concern that they were going to close the Eldridge facility which happened 4 years after RR Donnelley acquired the Eldridge, IA facility. The market for heat-set offset printing was continually shrinking quickly after 2010.
