  • Employee

A good place to work but management changes too often and there's not much leadership.

3.67

Suggestions for improvement

  • Improved management, better payscale and direction from leadership.

What I like about the company

They are good concerned workers who care about work life balance.

What I dislike about the company

Poor management. There needs to be stability at the top in order for a company to grow.

Good company with great compensation and fair benefits.

3.89

Suggestions for improvement

  • Don’t try to micromanage. Stop finding ways to cut corners to bump up the bottom line. Pay us OT or at least comp time.

What I like about the company

I’ve been able to move up in the company at a decent rate over 10 years. The pay and benefits are pretty good across the line.

What I dislike about the company

We need to be paid for all overtime instead of just a fraction. The health insurance options are not as good as they once were. The objectives of the company can’t be all and only about the bottom line.
