Pros

I liked running a cnc punch press so the work was good and the employees are nice. The company pi cinic was nice state fair, the zoo, and a brewer game each year they cater a meal and free food.

Cons

The company claims they are a union so you can't do anything you want then months later someone else can come in early and leave early even though I was told I can't because it wouldn't be fair. Then they decide you have to be there 11years to get 4 weeks vacation instead of 10 without telling anyone, union shop, who are you kidding.

Pros

No background checks. Good for people needing a job quickly.

Cons

Where to start? Poor leadership on all levels. A bunch of talk about quality and the customer but are happy pushing out inferior product and dealing with it later, but then blame all the workers (via no quarterly bonus due to impossible metrics they have little/ no control over) instead of correcting the workers responsible. They are SO CHEAP. Cheap in pay, cheap in providing what employees need in a timely manner or if ever, cheap in benefits, cheap all the way around. They want drones, not humans. Very high turnover rate. A lot of promises and little follow up. If you sign up for the annual company picnic and cant make it, they take money directly out of your check for each person signed up to go. Poor training. Reactive, not proactive.
