Pros

Holiday and flexi time allowances, health insurance, very genuine and helpful colleagues. R+D projects are interesting.

Cons

Bonus scheme not related to performance. Emphasis on image as means to progress career rather than technical competency or results. Politics and favouritism are shown by management leading to morale issues.

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
