Pros

Well documented procedures, at least at the corporate level. Salary and benefits pretty much on par with everybody else. Great people to work with. We finally got a GM that can get the site on the right track.

Cons

As soon as there is a downturn in the forecast (big contract not signed). Senior leadership shuts down the whole site.

Pros

Floor production staff is awesome; office staff not so much. Average blah company.

Cons

Managers are poorly trained. Cheap salaries. Very poor work culture- ignores holidays, employee picnic/ get-togethers. Burdensome non-value work.

Thank you for your candid feedback and for the many years you spent with Benchmark. We’re glad to hear your positive comments about the production floor teams, and we also hear your concerns around management effectiveness, compensation, culture, and engagement. These are areas we continue to actively evaluate, including how we develop leaders and foster a more supportive workplace. While every site and experience can differ, feedback like yours is important as we look for meaningful ways to improve.

Pros

Minimal need for overtime and fair communication when additional work may be needed for this role.

Cons

Serious restructuring of pay structure is needed for this role. Across the board more assistance and help is needed for the Minnesota branches. We are constantly asking for assistance and help both in resources, training, time, and employees but then there is constantly a question on why targets aren't being met despite us communicating needs. Minimal opportunity for advancement.
