Pros

Coworkers were awesome, clean facility.

Cons

Where do I begin? This is the most immoral, unethical, unprofessional company in which I have ever worked. If you want to get ahead in this company, be a liar and a cheat. The old product is hidden during audits (check the trailers in the lot). Push for sales to meet bonuses for the top men results in that same product being brought back out of date and returned to stores (check your dates on your beers people!). This causes even more work for the salesman, truck drivers, and warehouse employees, whose bonuses are affected, yet management still gets their bonuses. Speaking of bonuses, the disparity in these are astronomical. Warehouse employees can expect a bonus of about $50 while some management receive bonuses in the tens of thousands for Christmas. The more stuff you hide, the more you lie and cook the books, the higher your pay. But watch out, if they determine you make too much, you will eventually be fired for some stupid reason so they can disperse the workload on the other employees, or hire someone at half the pay. But if you kiss butt and are willing to take a lower rate of pay, you will move up fast. Your indescretions will be ignored. Example, a manager accused and found guilty of sexual harrassment was suspended and brought back and is now a manager. Another 30+ year employee that knew too much, didn't kiss butt, and had one alligation was terminated immediately. Sound fair? It wasn't. Accountants who question the books are immediately terminated. Office staff was reduced to almost non-existent as people were terminated and the remaining few were left to absorb the workload. Any perks lower level employees may have had in the past have become or are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Upper management are treated like royalty and are on a closed door policy. Employees are supposed to keep their heads down and not approach the management at all about issues. If they do, it's off with their heads! Employees there work tirelessly, at the expense of family time, to be treated like slaves and lowlifes. Upper management enjoy wonderful perks of ruling mercilessly, getting bonuses well for it, lying, cheating, kissing butt and cooking books.

Pros

Strong operational team with solid knowledge and collaboration. Fast-paced environment that provides opportunities to learn and develop quickly.

Cons

Leadership consistently operated with unrealistic expectations and limited operational understanding, frequently bypassing structure and relying on micromanagement. Decisions impacting staffing and performance were often made without full context or input from those closest to operations. This undermined leadership effectiveness, eroded trust, and created ongoing pressure outside of reasonable working conditions. Work-life balance was not respected, with expectations to remain available even during time off. Company values around culture and balance were communicated, but not consistently demonstrated in practice.
