Pros

Integrity of executive leadership People Service Profit culture and respect of persons Some working flexibility

Cons

Very difficult to advance and grow, many people are frustrated. Structure internal interview process favors those who learn the process over merit and ability. Little incentive to move laterally results in in-breeding in many - not all - departments. Push to broaden management span has decreased management opportunities. Executive leadership has had a history of putting profit above people while stating the opposite. Promised bonus has not been paid at 100% for over ten years. No visibility into the bonus process despite the CFO's video communications, which only results in further questions. People Service Profit culture is lip service with many vps, directors, and managers. Remote working opportunities have been restricted. Many aspects of the culture and working environment are stuck in the 80s and 90s, Nepotism - the chairman's son started at a hard-to-get principal position and is the fastest-rising executive with apparently no competition for positions.

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.
