      Decent Entry Level Job

      Manufacturing specialist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Quick progression from $13.5 to $15 assuming you pass all your reviews during the first year. - Decent health insurance, their regular insurance is about $60 per paycheck and the HSA plan is about $32 per paycheck. If you have the HSA they put in $200 and then do a dollar-to-dollar match for the next $200. - 401K with a 40% match for the first 5%

      Cons

      - Advancement and wage increase stagnate after the first year. You get another $0.50 after you're second year. - Depending on what you're job it can be difficult to get new skills and learn in other areas because they never make time for you. - Favoritism - A lot of overtime and mandatory overtime on Saturday

      While the technology is really awesome, the employees are smart and the schedules flexible at times the overall strategic vision and direction of the company is unclear.
