Pros

There are no "pros" to this job

Cons

Management at our facility is too young and have no people skills, They are condescending and won't allow you to use the restroom or get a drink when needed. It's "work work work"! Breaks are at a minimum, with a 10 minute break in reality becoming a 4 minute break, once you've waited in line to cleared the checkpoint to leave the assembly floor, because the entire warehouse is given their break all at the same time! No water to drink on the assembly floor! You have to wait for someone to come and stand in your place in line so you can get a drink in the hot environment. Manager literally told me that Jabil only wants young people working there, because of their stamina. I'm 55 and am treated very poorly. I am often left to stand ALONE and wait for my assignment while everyone else has been given theirs and has gotten to work. It is very humiliating the way I and another older gentleman are being treated. I have complained twice to my hiring manager at the staffing agency but she seems inept in being able to offer a solution.

Pros

1. Compensation is generally fair for the workload and industry standards, providing employees with stable income opportunities and overtime potential. 2. The company maintains strong operational output and has the ability to consistently meet demanding production goals and customer expectations. 3. Employees gain valuable hands-on manufacturing, logistics, and production experience that can strengthen long-term career growth in industrial and technical fields. 4. The workplace encourages efficiency, adaptability, and productivity, helping employees develop strong time-management and problem-solving skills. 5. Working for a globally recognized manufacturer can provide resume credibility and exposure to advanced manufacturing systems and processes.

Cons

1. Employees may experience excessive pressure to meet production quotas and performance expectations, which can negatively affect morale and overall job satisfaction. 2. The workload and pace can create elevated stress levels, particularly during high-demand production periods, leading to fatigue and reduced workplace motivation. 3. Employees who exceed production goals or consistently perform at a high level may feel underappreciated due to limited acknowledgment or positive reinforcement from leadership. 4. Some employees perceive unequal treatment or possible age-related bias in workplace interactions and advancement opportunities. 5. Internal communication and teamwork may be negatively impacted by gossip, favoritism, or coworkers acting in self-interest rather than collaboratively. 6. Some supervisory staff or team leads may contribute to workplace tension through inconsistent communication, lack of transparency, or unprofessional behavior. While Jabil offers strong production opportunities and industry experience, some employees have expressed concerns regarding workplace culture, leadership professionalism, and communication practices. Reports of negative discussions about employees within leadership environments, along with concerns about fairness and inclusivity toward LATAM employees, may contribute to decreased morale and trust if not proactively addressed. Strengthening accountability, communication standards, and inclusion efforts could help improve employee satisfaction and workplace culture overall.
