Pros

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Cons

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Pros

Minimal need for overtime and fair communication when additional work may be needed for this role.

Cons

Serious restructuring of pay structure is needed for this role. Across the board more assistance and help is needed for the Minnesota branches. We are constantly asking for assistance and help both in resources, training, time, and employees but then there is constantly a question on why targets aren't being met despite us communicating needs. Minimal opportunity for advancement.
