Pros

Decent benefits, but low 401K match.

Cons

Be aware here! The leadership is very dishonest, they change their mind often, and they hire and lay off employees constantly (layoffs twice per year are common). New employees do not have any stability, and they are first to go during constant layoffs. Senior managers will lay off many base line employees who have 1-3 years tenure, then re-post identical positions hoping to get cheaper workforce. Most new non-managerial and lower management hires get laid off in their first 2 years even if they received great year end reviews. When it comes to layoffs, the employee's performance does not matter! Unless you are related to senior management or you have been with the company last two decades, you will be let go via layoffs, and within days your position will be re-posted for barely cheaper workforce. Senior managers do not care about the people who work for them. They shift blame to lower ranking employees, and they do not take accountability. It is common for you to catch a senior manager directly lying to you.

Pros

Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) were quite good.

Cons

Flex tolerates a toxic work culture from their most senior leaders. My director, literally, yelled at me daily, usually throughout the day. He physically grabbed me and forced me in the direction he wanted me to move. He threatened to fire me or replace me at least once a week. I went to the then director of HR who did absolutely nothing. After she was let go I went to her successor who told me there was no record of me speaking with HR before. And she did nothing. Unable to tolerate the work environment, I left. The company doesn't take safety seriously. We had shelving collapse resulting in an employee needing medical attention. The person tasked with designing and building storage has no training, no mechanical background, and no analysis is being performed to validate if the storage can hold 1,000+ pounds. There's no budget for professionally designed storage and, again, I was threatened for raising this as a concern. I learned today this same director is continuing to use me as a scapegoat despite me no longer working there.
