Pros

Flexibly, co-workers , benefits, giveaways free stuff

Cons

Management does not focus on strategies to grow the business. More of a scramble to fix issues. They only see the battle and not the war. No Maternity leave and no one is to be trusted human resource team are bff with management. And absolutely no diversity at all. You can expect to see all white male management and Sr level. No processes sink or swim environment does not focus on development. There are favorites who will get away with murder if you are not your in trouble everyone is not equal.

Pros

People on the factory floor are great to work with. Snacks are cheap and soda fountain and coffee is free.

Cons

Good ol boys club in the managers. If you are not a friend or if they don't like you you get all the work. No way to move up and they lie to you about it. Bad pay and they send you home early all the time so you cant make a full weeks pay.
