Pros

The company has great culture in most units, however a few plants developed an unproductive stubborn subculture.

Cons

The company doesn't seem to invest in important initiatives to improve workplace environment upgrade (doesn't see as directly connected to bottom line results). Which creates disparity from plant to plant and even among same plant departments.

Pros

Great people to work with.

Cons

Nothing is ever finished always jumping from one thing to the next. Very unstable direction and everyone is a secratery. Crews and work force is understaffed and work place is very stressful.

Employee Development Lacking

Pros

Pay has been reduced the past couple of years but it is still competitive for the area. Overtime for salaried employees is rare. As long as you do your job and get decent results you do not need to work overtime.

Cons

Leadership does a poor job of identifying skill individual skill sets and putting them in the right positions. Long term development of employees is an afterthought most of the time.
