Pros

They pay good, liked the work.

Cons

I was fired because I was accused of saying something insensitive, however I was never told what exactly I was accused of. Never given a chance to defend myself, and on top of it fired over the phone after my shift on a friday. I garentee I did not say anything derogatory records anyone. Also communication is lacking, reactive vs pro active, parking is horrific, and no real training.

Although I am unable to comment as I don't know the specifics of the case, I am sorry to hear that you had a negative experience at the end of your employment with Sika. We aim to treat all of our employees fairly and I will pass your comments onto the local management team for their review.

Pros

It's solid if unremarkable factory work. If you’re looking for a clean job, this is not for you, but if you’re OK with getting dirty, it’s fine. Pay is pretty good. Management is fair and pretty hands off as long as everything is running as expected. Benefits package looks great.

Cons

The only real con to the job is the hiring process I went through. System One, the agency that handles the hiring at the Lakewood, NJ plant, promises new temps a full time hire or a return to the agency after 600 hours/15 weeks. Instead, as confirmed by several members of management, it can take up to two years for the company to actually hire you on as an employee while in the meantime, you're accumulating no PTO/vacation, no holiday pay, awful benefits through the agency, etc.

Pros

They manufacture great products. There is a true "team" environment.

Cons

I do not feel there are any cons that are not self inflicted...
