Pros

Some people are nice but not too many

Cons

There are no benefits and they lowball you on salary (well below the median income in the region for your experience). And they wonder why nobody stays longer than a year. STS also has a dangerous working environment. Ventilation is poor (no hoods or floor sweeps). There is no equipment to work safely (instead of investing in a drum lift, production uses three people to lift a drum to poor it). Generally doesn't follow GLP and GMP so their quality suffers. The two co-owners are paranoid. They invested in cameras, not for security sake, but to watch the employees. They are suspicious if you ask too many questions on how to do your job properly. They'll treat you like a corporate spy for no good reason.

Pros

Great team environment with strong leadership and clear direction. The company is growing quickly and always investing in better equipment and processes. Management is supportive and open to new ideas, and there are real opportunities to learn new skills and grow within the business. The workflow is organized and focused on efficiency, which makes day-to-day work smooth and productive.

Cons

As a growing company, things can move fast and priorities may shift, but the team adapts quickly and communication continues to improve.

Pros

I've been a Production Manager at STS Inks for 10 years and its been an excellent place to grow and lead. The company values teamwork, innovation and quality and I am proud to be apart of it.

Cons

Like any workplace, there are areas that can improve, but the positives far outweigh the challenges.
