Pros

They have great pay, its nearly impossible to get fired as long as you follow attendance policies, and its very laid back on certain shifts.

Cons

They have absolutely horrid communication, the company they contracted for plating at my location tended to scratch the parts, and then blame us. Management is very disconnected from the floor. also, Their overtime policy is a joke, they believe they own your time first, and everything else in your life is second, refuse to build up stock during the slow season so we don't have to come in for as much overtime during the busy season, and rarely keep all shifts fully staffed.

Pros

Good pay. Easy work. Good job to get manufacturing experience

Cons

Lots of overtime and very little time to spend with my daughter. Not a good place to work if you have a family

Pros

Seems like a stable job, but having to work almost every day of the year gets to be ridiculous.

Cons

No accountability for the employees on the floor. Employees have been caught doing an outrageous amounts of things that would normally get them fired but have not even been reprimanded. Company continues to hire the same sort of lazy people that do not have even the meager work ethics of a fast food place.
