Pros

Good pay, decent benefits, rewarding work

Cons

Company refuses to spend money needed to maintain machines, keep tools in working order. Supervisors give 2 days notice for mandatory overtime on weekends. Company will not excuse absences from regular work schedule or overtime with a doctors note, you must use vacation time to cover it, and supervisors may or may not approve of your vacation request. Supervisors have lied multiple times to get what they want, have even lied in interviews about overtime and pay scale. There is recorded instances of favoritism and vindictiveness from supervisors.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
