Pros

Salary and benefit not bad . Nice office

Cons

- The overall company environment has been increasingly challenging. One contributing factor seems to be the integration of certain foreign hires whose working styles may not align well with local practices, sometimes leading to misunderstandings or a lack of respect toward local colleagues. - In some newly established departments, the hiring of certain managers may need to be reassessed. There have been instances where emotional control was lacking, with frequent scolding or raised voices during meetings. This behavior can affect morale and may reflect insufficient accountability in leadership. - Our current system infrastructure feels outdated and requires significant time to access. Improving system efficiency would greatly enhance productivity and reduce frustration across teams. - The HR approach appears to focus heavily on termination when issues arise, rather than exploring solutions such as coaching, mediation, or employee development. A more balanced strategy could help retain talent and foster a healthier workplace culture .

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
