Sweat Shop... Stay away - Operator Graphic Packaging International Employee Review

Pros

Benefits that's it unless you like having no life working mandatory 6 days of 12hr shifts back to back week after week but it will get old quick

Cons

The location I worked at was a Union shop and since management isn't part of the Union there was always a massive bridge between the workers and leadership. Management was always pushing everyone till they dropped for health reasons and would never listen to anything the workers had to say since they weren't people but merely tools which are replaceable. Training was non-existing and expectations where high to push out numbers. Safety is a joke operators are expected to reach into moving machines to keep productivity up. LOTO is not encouraged even though they have safety signs about it everywhere. People come in and get distracted by how much money they can make and stick around until they get used to the pay and then get stuck because they cant afford a pay cut but can't work the hours anymore. Don't bother with them they could care less about you, your health and your family.

Pros

Pay is decent for the workload. Union is coming in.

Cons

Management makes false promises they do not keep. Copy and pasted all of the SOPs from other sites that has nothing to do with Waco site. No clear path of progression. "Flow to work" does not work.
