Working at elite, there is no “standard” day at work due to the lack of communication and stability within the company. Supervisors are pushy and use their “good” employees to the point of burnout and expect little nothing from the rest of the employees. They blame any mistake on those who have been selected as favorites even if they have done nothing wrong. They don’t want you to use your vacation and get mad when you have to leave for doctors appointments. If you choose to use vacation, they made their own rule that only one person can off the line in one day and the rest will be denied because they are needed. They don’t find coverage, they just grab other employees out of their designated departments while fulfilling a job because they believe they can “catch up later” or “they don’t do enough”. The communication is extremely lacking and it’s a rarity everyone is on the same page. Supervisors make it hostile and uncomfortable to work on the lines and makes employees hate coming in to work. Management is the absolute worst part of Elite. The best part is the understanding workers and kindness you find on the floor of everyone else. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Management then it changed and they gave them jobs to inexperienced people like the product Mgr didn't even graduate and he got the job and that job require you to have experience and 2-3 years of college and then there was the prejustuff 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The machines that the maintenance would patch up for a few minutes or hours and it hurt the line because you can't get your number and the manager blaimed me as the lead for regardless if you write down or etc 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Use to family oriented but now a joke 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Great until the machine go down or they want the lead to train the supervisor etc and don't get paid for or no incentive

Working at elite helped me realize that it’s important learning how to work well with others because you might not always be at a job where you can work alone. The people were great, they possessed excellent leadership, they were quick at assisting you if you needed help with doing your job. I don’t really think there were any cons about elite besides sometimes the hours can be very long, sometimes we would work 12 to 16 hours a day pulling in 80 something hours a week, sometimes  I wouldn’t mind because I needed the money but there were times where I didn’t want to because of lack of sleep, but other than that elite is a great company to work for.

The job is simple and fairly laid back. The atmosphere, especially on 2nd shift, is relaxing if a bit hot because of the environment. Problem is with management. They constantly embody the phrase, "Give them an inch and they take a mile". Consistently performing at or above expectations will only lead to more work being heaped on you by other sections of the warehouse who justify it by saying, "Well, they managed to do close to this amount last week on Friday." This leads to a constantly inflating expectation for workers that eventually pops like a bubble any time someone calls out or people just aren't feeling their absolute best on any given night. Very frustrating. 

I worked with the company for a few years but nothing was ever predictable. Everyone's schedule changed from five days a week to 4 days a week (10-hour shifts)  but every week based on upper managements feelings, employees would get held accountable for unpredictable days to come in to work. At the height of Covid-19,  there were "Lack of work"  days. We started to receive unemployment until upper management thought employees were "taking advantage" of it and they took it away although covid affected everyone. There was also a lot of favoritism shown towards certain employees. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Just getting overtime. The company it self sucks. They don't communicate what so ever and the management don't use common sense or their brains.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Pretty much the management makes it stressful. The job is laid back. Its just that they put people in positions and they don't know what they are doing.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Diverse, yet complicated is all I can say at this point. The Ceo needs to get rid of the crew, meaning management and start over fresh.

Lots of stress, finger pointing from Management on down. Management was not very supportive with day to day responsibilities.Entire plant was run very inefficient, lots of incapable people in important positions, no safety awareness or care by management and lacking mass amount of team work. Plant manager only cared about himself only and no one else, and didn't like to hear others opinions or 2nd guessed. When things went bad he and assistant plant manager would pass the blame onto others.

After the old Plant manager was replaced in 2018, things immediately improved. The HR department actually felt like they really cared about us and were very approachable. Instead of talking about safety the company actually had the courage to make changes and even went smoke free! I felt like we actually saved the plant from going out of business and management always seemed appreciative. Hope our new owners have the same attitude. Wish I still worked there but had to move.

It's really a bad work environment. Management speaks to people any kind of way, with absolutely no accountability. You will freeze or burn up in there, depending on the season. Coworkers think they have a right to hire and fire fellow employees. Even once in the system, an employee cannot get in the building and out of the rain or cold without a manager scanning their badge. The dining area is disgusting and has dirt piled up on the floor, utensils left out, and trash everywhere. Please look for better. 

I worked here for 4 yrs. No evaluations just a .15 raise. Management is racist. Derogatory comments in the restroom. No room for advancement. It's about who you know. Everyone there in management were friends in school or with the former owners son. They hire criminals who they treat like their favorite and the people putting in the work get looked over. I've heard management make derogatory statements with my own ears. If you decide to work here you need really tough skin.
