McKinley Packaging

Came here looking for temporary work and I found just that. Supervisors do not care to train their employees. Mandatory Saturdays. Holidays only paid out if you're there the day before and a day after. You will always work a Saturday after a holiday, so you really don't get a "holiday" off. Machines are consistently down. Managers nitpick employees for stupid rules that they break themselves and value a personality cult over growing and building up their team. New hires will not be trained as the operator is the one training people. Air conditioned facilities are a thing of the past with this company, broken fans during the summer no heat during the winter. 
Pay is mid satisfactory, you could go to DSSmith down the road who's doing the same thing and their direct competitor for better benefits.


I will keep it short, It really is not a good a ideal place to work. Like many other reviews state is true It is truly the worst place I have worked. It doesn't matter which department you work in. The reoccurring theme is current management is God Awful, and it seems like it wont change. The pay was fair, but don't expect raises, even promised raises it most likely wont happen. If you must work here my advice is work it until you find something different. A place like this isn't worth anyone's mental health. They don't care about you so why should you care about them.

Typical day at work consisted of last minute job inserts and multiple meetings taking away from quality time spent on the floor assisting/training employees.  Too many saying "not my job", too many days of multiple absences without extra hands to fill in.  Not enough knowledge of the corrugated industry to get the facility up and running from day one.  Too many "yes persons" and no individual thought.  The Director of Human Resources is a person that will single out someone if he doesn't agree with them and has covered up more than one issue involving someone within the on-site HR dept.

This place is just out right terrible and I don't recommend anybody ever work here. The plant I work at does nothing but lie to me and many other employees all the time. We will get told one thing that could be good and they do the complete opposite and saying they never said the first thing. Pay raises yeah you don't get those, and if you do it is not worth the trouble you go through for the little they give. If anything breaks on your shift good luck hoping maintenance has parts to repair it for this place does nothing in hopes of repairs. All I can say to make a long painful story short is don't work here ever. It is just down right the worst.

Excessively loud environment you will have to use foan earplugs inside of ear muff type hearing protection.  The risk of hearing loss is great there.  There's poor air quality.  If you have asthma, respiratory problems or allergies do not risk your health.  Breaks are a luxury and it's only 15 minutes for some areas and shifts and others 25 minutes.  Several times I've been skipped of my second break.

I’ve been working at McKinley for over a year and just left and in my experience it was a down right terrible job to work when I started I was thrown on  12 hour shifts six days a week for eight mouths out of the year the hours made it to where I would make constant mistakes and each time I requested time off, it was denied this company does not care about their employees or their well-being.
