It's an OK place to work. Relatively good pay for low skill level. 6-7 days a week mandatory is pretty terrible, and points at bad management priorities. My coworkers have almost always been good people. I miss our founding CEO, Fred Bauer. The new management are just regular business people.
What makes you most happy at work?
When we have Sunday off. Saturday off would be nice too.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Pretty much everyone is a good person and nice to be around.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Everyone bands together about working 6-7 days a week. No one likes it, but we get the job done.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The pay relative to the skill involved (I work on the production line). I've also never had any issues with health insurance.
What did you like most about the interview process?
I interviewed about 15 years ago, so I can't really comment about how it's like nowadays. However, they do tell people that we only work 5 days a week with occasional Saturdays, but that's not true.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Leadership needs to listen to the people who work with the machinery everyday. The engineers seem to be getting faulty information. When they put "fixes" into place it usually just makes matters worse and doesn't really fix the root issues.
