Business outlook
Pros
The work is relatively steady, although sometimes seasonally erratic. Most employees are full-time with benefits. 40 Hour weeks are common for line workers, 50+ hrs/wk not unusual for middle and upper management.
Cons
The measurements for productivity are strict, as are the goals. Failure is not an option in this culture. Recent changes in attitudes toward workers who are older or have had work-related injuries indicate that the corporate culture is under stress, and is backing away from the former "Bergstrom is like family" atmosphere. The company puts too much into Public Relations, and too little into employee development. In-house training is a joke!
