Pros

Moderate pay. Other than that there is nothing.

Cons

Preach safety all day long, I'm the end it comes down to production. The management doesn't care about you, They care about their pockets. Does not provide proper PPE. Hazardous working environment. Runs equipment even when broken ,falling apart, and in danger of seriously injuring someone. Management will change procedures and when failed, the operators get blamed. The list goes on!

Pros

vacation available immediately, 100% vesting in 401K on first day. Lots of opportunities for growth.

Cons

Brazilian company out of touch with American market. Very volatile industry. Many initiatives implemented on top of others, with no real sense of an end goal.

Overall a good company

Pros

The pay was comparable to other companies in the area. They have a good benefits package.

Cons

Inconsistent on policies and rules- do not apply evenly to everyone. Sometimes takes quite a while to get approvals or answers from management. Not very at looking at employment potential from within. If you want to better your position within the company...good luck.
