Here’s what current and former employees have to say on Glassdoor:
“Pros: Stable work; clean facility; safety conscious. Cons: Management a bit unorganized; you never know when and who your new boss will be.” —Current employee
“Pros: Treat employees well; much growth potential. Cons: Continuous stress; fire fighting; old infrastructure.” —Current employee
“Pros: Benefits; flexible hours; local to the Lehigh Valley; privately owned; gaining market share and revenue in the U.S.; great bonus program (for directors and VPs); trying to add diversity to its work force. Cons: Slightly lower pay than competition; understaffed; HR (shamefully stuck in the ’90s); bullying; some long term employees are petty and retaliatory with no personal accountability; hierarchy well intact and thriving; many life-long employees, (some are in management) have no frame of reference for what a modern corporate culture can be like.” —Current employee
“Pros: People are great and are committed to the company success. Cons: Private company, so things sometimes move … slow.” —Former employee
“Pros: The people are nice on a personal basis; general atmosphere is low pressure because base business is sustaining rather than improving. Cons: There have been many reorganizations, each worse than the last. [The Irvine, Calif.] site might have crossed a point of no return for the foreseeable future.” —Current employee
