Work flow is a nightmare scenario. They are way over possessed with a space saver mentality that does not include any ground floor employee input. As a result, you get only a minimum amount of material for each scheduled run. If you run into any problems ( which often happens because your raw materials are typically faulty and in poor condition) then you have to fill out paper work and walk all the way back to the warehouse and request more.
Because much of the products they produce are for labeling industrial products, they have stringent, almost 'clean-room' like standards for your very small work space. You almost get the feeling that if they could get the work done with out a human there, they would be much more happy. The most obvious indicator that this is a difficult work environment is that the vast majority of people you will work with are extremely unhappy. I have never quite seen anything like this. Finally, they have this really cooky arrangement with 'engineers'. They have them act as production overseers, and problem solvers, even though none of them have printing backgrounds. Be prepared when you approach your team leader with any feedback and complaints, to be sent to your engineer, who will usually say something like, "I am not really sure what the answer is, but I will get back to you." Which obviously begs the question as to why a team leader is even necessary.
