NISCO

Like I've said the pay was excellent.  Some of there tactics (i.e., mandatory overtime, points for being one minute late in an unexpected snow storm, being prejudged for your skin color) are reminiscent of slavery. If you take the time to show up to work in a blizzard then your employer should respect your efforts enough to not give you points just to satisfy an attendance policy.  Where is the respect for your employee within that?  Also, supervisors, managers and office administrators there need to attend a Cultural Competency course so that they can learn how different cultures operate so that they can spend less time making people feel disrespected and more time getting some work done.

I was a hard worker,dependable worker, who worked for almost 18yrs,! Hardest part was coming in to a messy cell, having to clean up after the night shift, so then I couldn't get started on  time! Easiest part for me was I could take my time and I could get rate which was 20 the first hr. and 32, then 31! We got two 20 minute breaks the second one was paid for! My co-workers were great except that some of them never made rate and nothing was ever done or going to be done to them so that was very upsetting to me! Management pretty much stayed away from me, they would come out and check our numbers and see if we were missing shipments and try to see when they would be done! The hardest part was if we're missing shipments they would make us first shift bust butt until we got it!

A typical day at work would be doing the same thing over and over again. You could be mandated to work 7 days a week after working for 3 weeks with the company. After 3 months they can mandate you to work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. The hardest part about the job is that there is not equality. Certain shifts are treated better than others and there's nothing you can do about it. I'm personally looking for a new job because working 7 days a week does not correlate with me being in college. Nisco does not care about family...coming into work and pushing yourself to meet the rate is all that matters. Being paid good money is great but if you're not happy the money just doesn't matter after awhile.

This company does not care about you. You are simply a replaceable number for them. The parts they require for each department is ridiculous and you are going to work a minimum of 50 hours a week, all Saturdays, and likely several Sundays because they prefer to make new departments and move people to them rather than making sure all prior departments are fully staffed. You will have no free time whatsoever. If you succeed in one department, they'll just train you in another and expect you to pick up the slack there as well. Team leads can be untrained at best and do little to ensure numbers are met, and there has been more than one mention of some of them being racist.

This company does not deserve you, so just stay away.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Good people that treat you good. Care about your lively hood. And pays very well. I loved working at Nisco.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
It's a stand up job so your back may have a few pain issues back it's worth it because they take good care of you and I would recommend anyone working here

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The environment is awesome great people of different cultures you learn a lot about the different cultures very friendly.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It runs very smoothly time goes fast because you stay busy and consistent

I worked at NISCO for almost a year.  The pay was great.  Lots of OT. The HR department is corporate-centric and there are managers who will stab you in the back.  The company preaches policy, policy, policy; but then fails to follow them when it is convenient for them.  There is no job security and everyone is expendable no matter how hard you work and what skills you have.  The culture is hostile and there is no effort to change that from managers who worry more about associating blame then solving problems.  I would not recommend working there if you like your self-esteem, have a life, or care about how you are treated.

Good place to work jobs are easy no heavy lifting. Associates and management are friendly and willing to help with any questions or concerns. Benefits including medical vision and dental are good along with optional health screening.  401K match.  Competitive wages. Mostly a fast paced work environment sometimes the overtime is overwhelming but doesn't usually last for long periods of time. The company is always looking for new or better ways to improve safety and quality, and listens to the associates thoughts and suggestions.

The work at Nisco was good. I liked working there and would still be there, but they have been working us 12 hours a day, 7 days a week since last November. I left a notice and quit from exhaustion. I dont mind working 50 hours a week or even 60, but 84 hours a week continuosly for months on end is a bit much when you don't have time to spend with your family or go grocery shopping or to the laundromat. Honestly I miss Nisco and the people that I worked with. I am rehirable and would love to go back, but they are still working 84 hour work weeks.

What is the best part of working at the company?
There were very hard workers, and I never had to pick up a another persons slack.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The hot temperates in the building. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Family oriented. Mostly helpful. Fast pase.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It goes fairly well and fast. A lot of Standing and consistent movement.

The company also holds flexible availability, great benefits for short and long term, and very good and competitive Pay.
The cons of this job, are unorganized work departments, more than less work debris/Trash in between lanes and Work Areas. Also breaks Could be a bit more lenient on the Times for workers.
