Highest turnover I've seen at a company. They churned through PC/APM/PMs. Redundant systems that bog down efficiency. Management that couldn't care less. When they're not bragging about their mansions, cars, private jets, etc., they are consistently asking for workers to do more and more for the company. One of the most top heavy companies I've encountered. Everyone is a executive, VP, director, or manager. Worst part was the awful legacy workers there that were beyond miserable and tried to drag you down with them. Awful culture, awful work environment, pay was OK at best.  Only small pro was ability to move up in your department since the turnover rate was so high. Other departments made promises that they could not keep and often lied about due dates (which puts you in hot water as a PM). 

Thus far I have enjoyed working with many of the long-term, highly skilled and loyal employees of the Company. Very friendly and willing to provide help and guidance. Employees enjoy participating in Company events. There is a lot of safety training and education, many improved work processes and cross-training opportunities to enhance skills, there is a good potential for growth opportunities. 

No growth, terrible management, backwards culture. AVOID.
They pay well but the stress from this job is not worth it. Currently undergoing pay cuts and reduced working hours. They have fired people with 20+ years of experience but the real problem are executives who do not give a s* about anyone but themselves. Expensive healthcare, 401k matching of 1%, no pros to this job. Interestingly pay cuts announced to everyone are just for some people.

Beware if you’re considering starting a career at this firm. They have no procedures, no formal training, and ZERO onboarding procedures. This may sound extreme, but it’s true. There is no culture and a general feel of negativity from the entire staff. This is not a firm for a seasoned professional or a place where you can have sustainable healthy career. I’ve never experienced such a poor environment in my entire career. 

repetitive boring tasks in incredibly hot environment. They preach quality over quantity when its the opposite they are after. Majority of staff is untrained and will cause much trouble for you as you must fix many issues caused by others. Not worth the pay.

This company has no future with current management. Seasonal firings when their revenue is down, then overwork you to make up for the lack of employees. Meanwhile, management is taking home hundreds of thousands of dollars in bonuses.
Backwards mentality and no real leadership.
401k match is 1%, health insurance is extremely expensive.

Employees at job will help each other and mostly teach or find more ways for you work on new things but sadly management would scold you for it and pay and stress wasn't worth it

Very fair management always willing to listen and share thoughts and ideas for continued improvement. Hard working and extremely dedicated and loyal employees . Several employees have been the company for over 30+ years.  Love the employees events .

Good place to work as an entry level worker and grow within the company. There are plently of opportunities to make a name for yourself. As long as you are willing to put the hardwork in and work as a team.

Best quality products, made by highly experienced and hardworking loyal employees. Continuous Improvements are recognized. Employees are highly respected and appreciated. Competitive benefits and salaries .
