Heads Up to Millennials! - Production Artist Packaging Specialties Employee Review

I worked at Packaging Specialties for about two years. If want your manager to micromanage every single thing do, and to stand over you all day like a king penguin guarding its egg then this is the place for you! We had to copy our manager on every email and we were called (even though we worked within steps of one another!) about every 10 minutes until jobs were completely done. It seems to earn adult status you had to be born prior to the Reagan administration. If you're a millennial and you sign up there, be ready for a stroll down elementary school memory-lane. Lunch will feel the same (minus the juice boxes) and breaks will seem like recess. For bathroom breaks make sure you build in enough time to tell your manager where you're going. If you're a woman under a certain age the dress code seems to be different than if you're over that age. There were occasions where I was asked why I was dressed "so sexy" by men in the office (wearing pretty straight forward work clothes). The company doesn't support internal promotions or transfers. Career growth there is a challenge as your manager is allowed to block you from even applying for internally-posted jobs. You could be in the same role for awhile.
