Pros

Good benefits and 401K. Most co-workers fun to work with and nice.

Cons

There are to many to type! This company is corrupt and actions are illegal. Management is discriminatory and moves "favorites" ahead and forgets the rest of the employees. Employees are not valued and OI turn over rate is large. Upper management fine with their talent walking out the door. It is so difficult to find people in the glass industry to hire but they still watch the talent quit and leave.Beyond political and very bad behavior from many people. Women treated like we just crawled out from under a rock. Mainly a male world. Woman are turned into assistants while men never are. I could have gotten a friend in but would not do that to a friend. Bosses truly do not care about their employees. I am so glad I got out of there because it was seriously making me sick. Culture is set-up by the leaders to be extremely competitive and back stabbing. HR is worthless as well. They are not their for employees.

Pros

*Better management than in some previous years. *Great and highly competent HR Generalist although she works between 2 plants. *Good maintenance support and troubleshooting from forklift mechanic. *Very supportive foremen in many areas, the younger ones are very engaged.

Cons

*If corporate had decided to keep this plant open, the full potential of this location could be realized and fleshed out. It may have been too little too late, anyway. I can see why they didn't since it has suffered under deferred maintenance and abuse by previous corporate policies and managers. *Retirement no longer offered. *Occasional coworker who is a walking legally defined hostile work environment among the work staff. *The current live-to-work schedule is deadly. It doesn't matter now that the Portland plant is closed but this would be liability where used in other locations. *Some managers have been split between 2 plants, what I call trying to squeeze juice out of raisins.
