Extremely high turnover (700+ in 2013!), constant churn in upper management (3 General Managers, 4 Operations Managers and numerous Department/Production Managers in 5 years), instability in middle management, poor communication from upper management to the workforce.
Constant changes to hourly employee pay scale, structure and conditions for wage progression leaves employees frustrated. Inequality in salaried employee pay structure with large disparity between internal promotions and external hires for equal positions creates tension and animosity between peers. Professional development opportunities are very limited along with advancement.
Inconsistent enforcement of company policies breeds a heavy sense of favoritism. Standardization of job performance expectations is almost non-existent across all four shifts. Performance evaluations have no impact on pay, longevity or advancement potential.
Benefits could use some work. Very low 401k match rate of only 25%. Medical insurance carrier is not accepted by many local physicians and clinics.
