This place used to be a good place to work. It's a union shop with okay pay. Upper Management and HR are the worst. It's a family owned business that is now on the 3rd generation. The first two generations were about family and friends. All the third generation cares about is money. They want to grow and had the potential to grow but wasted it by chasing off all of their skilled labor. They adopted a new "management" and "core values" that none of upper management cares for or follows. The "Core Values" are very broad and they've allowed HR to weaponized them to the point to where they can say that you violated a "Core Value" and then let you go. It's a revolving door and as soon as people realize that the pay isn't worth it anymore they leave. Anybody that is left that shows any type of talent is swallowed whole with performance punishment while the ones who are there to collect a pay check sits back and watches it all happen. They cut raises so that they could invest more into the company and all they were able to accomplish was waste the money on cosmetics. They office has a beautiful brand new kitchen and all of the offices have been updated. Meanwhile, machinery is constantly broken, production throughput is on a downward trend and you are surrounded by an angry bitter culture that is tired of being mistreated. If you choose to work here. make sure you take some scuba diving classes otherwise you'll constantly feel like you're drowning,

It was pretty much a boring place to work. Everyone starts out in the Glue Room. You either feed the machine with product (paper sheets) or catch the finished product (folding cartons) at the end of the machine and put it into corrugated boxes. And you do this standing for the entire 8 hour shift in one position. You may be asked to work overtime, but it's never required. You can bid on jobs so there is potential to move to printing, sheeting, diecutting, finishing operator, or shipping and receiving, but it's based on seniority so whoever has been there the longest gets the bid. You get only two 15 minute breaks per shift so you had better learn to eat really fast. Management is terrible. There is a lot of favoritism shown, but I suppose that would be the case anywhere. The medical benefits are horrible. High premiums and extremely high deductibles so you will pay for a service that you will never use because the insurance company doesn't pay a dime until you hit the deductible. The dental and vision insurances, on the other hand, are really good. Fair price for what you get. About the nicest thing I can say about working there is your coworkers are really awesome, and the pay is good. 

Horrible place to work, especially if you're a woman. Management is terrible,  they harass and bully employees, they cover up for favorite employees and retaliate against employees that whistle blow the harassment from supervisors. Drama drama drama. Favoritism. 
Pretty easy factory work with heavy lifting some days, 
boxing food cartons. 
Bad management makes this place unbareable. 
No Christmas bonus, just maybe a mandatory company shirt as a gift, and some left over wrapping paper. 
Bathrooms are disgusting, Vending machines are broke half the time, Mouse turds in the coffee machine,  Breaks are short, it's hot, management hides fans from employees, favorite employees (operators) are allowed to cuss out other employees regularly with no consequences, office has air conditioning, factory is over 100 sometimes. would not recommend this stressful environment.

Waa good clean  job union job with chances for advancent was sometimes very physical and hard leaving one sore n tired at end of shift also boring when packing boxes n being stuck in one spot entire shift only 2 15 minute breaks but can usually eat a sandwich n get bathroom breaks while still doing most jobs from feeding loading or packing worked nights so less management and less working crews at might made more peaceful than days shift they paid good good benifits just third generation of family owned business managed by school books n less what his father n grandfather built the company on so big downfall n made place undesirable for me but most would probably conform n be fine with modern overmanagment

I worked at ICC for several years, and there is no room for advancement. Plus the job is extremely boring. You start out in the Glue Room, and you’ll either be feeding the machine or packing the finished goods into corrugated boxes. The medical insurance is a joke. Very high premium and deductible. You can bid on jobs in other areas, but the person who gets it is the one with the most seniority.
Union doesn’t help you at all. I don’t recommend.

I love this company.  Everyone works together.  The training is great. They want you to succeed.  They will show you multiple ways or even get training from several people if necessary  for you to feel comfortable with your job. Lot of people have been here for years. That tells me that this company is a great place to work.  I'm sold!
