Pros

Benefits for part-time workers, career advancement oppotunities, relocation opportunities, strong business model and brand. A good way to get your foot in the door and to start a career with a good company with all kinds of leadership and technical opportunites

Cons

Too focused on tenure at the expense of rewarding people based on their contributions. Compensation and pay too structured, puts a focus on how long you have been sitting in your seat. Holidays can be a real drag and when bad weather hits around that time all bets are off and you better be flexible. Some long term managers and employees can get stuck in their ways

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
