Sales advisor that does zero sales

Pros

Good benefits and stock options used to be a good incentive if you got in early enough (they give you very little now)

Cons

Started off in sales and ended up doing everything but sales. They gave you work in whatever department needs helps. You could be assisting the service team one day for example, and the next day your supper the operations team. Very unorganized and don’t appreciate their employees anymore. Very hard to progress, they would rather hire from within.

Pros

The pay was ok and the people in the factory were nice.

Cons

Management is the worst form of micromanaging from the top down. They don't care about anything other than arbitrary numbers and their turnover rate was abysmal because they don't look at employees as people.

Pros

Production always has overtime since people are always hurt and quitting which is bittersweet The shuttle helps commuters since we don’t make enough to live close to work without a roommate or partner

Cons

Quality department AMs and upper management are very biased when it comes to hiring their friends and people of the same race Pay not adequate for how hard the jobs are All about who you know not what you know so an butt kisser will get promoted first especially since they are always low on hard working people on the line since the harder workers leave due to mistreatment Used to get 2 raises a year but now we get 1 They also lowered how much we get when we do get a raise You can get a written or verbal warning when someone has an accusation even if there’s no proof They always expect more of you even though they have consistently lowered pay
