Pros

*Left on good terms* 40 Hours guaranteed Most employees fun to be around Decent Overtime when you want it.

Cons

Supervisors lack knowledge, they push extra projects on you and don't show you how to do them so you get held accountable for any problems. No appreciation for special projects done. Upper management does not care about you, they will tell you to do something and when you do it yell at you. When brought in through a temporary agency you are told that you will be hired in within 3 months. This is a LIE - I had to seek other employment due to no health benefits for 8 months while waiting. Have to be careful of certain co-workers who will gang up on you, and cause a hostile work environment. Supervisors will 'mandate' you to over time when you shouldn't be due to their based on seniority system and when you bring the mistake to their attention they will make you work it or face attendance issues. Attendance policy is terrible, you could be leaving work to seek medical attention because you are so sick and you will still face points based on their terrible attendance policy even if you provide documentation. Upper management outside of the Call Center do not care how the manager of the call center treats the employees.

Pros

120 Hours of PTO per year is nice, *if* you get hired on completely. Working with people of different ethnicity is nice.

Cons

These people LOVE their temp workers and will keep you that way as long as possible. No bonuses, no PTO/Sick time, no benefits. You can be strung along for up up to 3 years before being hired on. Benefits are lackluster at best. Dental especially is a joke. You will NOT get promoted. Lateral movement at best, and if you like stress you can become a team lead/supervisor. Management feels completely disconnected, focused more on their spreadsheets than boots-on-the-ground input from factory workers. Communication between departments and levels of management is almost nonexistent. Yearly bonuses are unfairly weighted to favor upper management with unrealistic expectations for participation. * Overtime/Weekend work not required but an unwritten expectation that WILL negatively impact your reviews and bonus Abysmal raise rates. So many work stoppages due to terrible supplier relationships Major holidays extended, use PTO to fill time or go unpaid. (No help for temps) Things are such a frantic unorganized mess that you can never tell if you are understaffed or overloaded with work volume. Management engagement with employees feels like required lip service more than genuine interest. HR is virtually useless and will defer work back onto the employees Point system for attendance is weighted to pressure employees to be at work even if its dangerous. Staying anonymous because there will be a talking to in the office otherwise. Feeling completely undervalued/replaceable/disrespected.
