Pros

High profits, self absorbed culture, toxic environment

Cons

I can guarantee you that the good to great reviews are from HR & CORP cronies that are trying to look good. This company is rotten to its core. The culture is “watch your back”. It started shortly after Barclay died and got worse. Ask any of the employees in California, trust me. Everyone is smiling only because they are scared and being watched! Quietly they will tell you from corporate through management no one knows what they are doing. Ask their customers, even the customers complain and nothing gets fixed. So sad!

Pros

I love my coworkers; they brighten my day. Food and lots of food

Cons

The company is unionized, so there are many roadblocks to implementing processes and holding people accountable. When you speak up about gaps, you get crucified and into trouble. Production lags with new management. Training lacks pretty bad The culture has changed over the years; no one cared about Barc's nine principles. That is what people use to say that there is nothing wrong with the company—not true. ISO documentation is lacking; I don't know how we pass. It is hard to promote yourself in a specific role or in other roles. All office positions are hybrid, which means that work-life balance is good. lean is lacking, but then again there's no accountability.
