Pros

Pay/Benefits Chik-Fil-A couple times a week.

Cons

HORRIBLE working conditions/SUFFOCATING HEAT/FREEZING COLD. Very loud, poor air quality, LOUD, WHOLLY INCOMPETENT "leadership" from top down. RACIST against whites..most there are the laziest,sorriest no-count people you could imagine. Going to a terrible 4on/4 off swing shift...gonna be the downfall of the place. Leadership blames everyone but themselves for all the problems & troubles. Worst, most out o date equipment to work with Ive ever seen in 30 years plus of manufacturing experience. Lines run wide open to make up for downtime and other ongoing problems. The place is losing experienced help almost weekly..many of us there for years have left..more to follow.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
