A fun and rewarding place to work, productive and busy. Learned a lot.
Office Manager (Former Employee), Pagosa Springs, CO – March 30, 2012
Pros: productive, busy, engaging, contributive to a positive environment
Cons: employee misunderstandings, not following through on company's set procedures
A fun and rewarding environment, productive and busy. Typical day involved inputing data, consulting with the owner and employees, multi-tasking and managing varied tasks. Learned how to maintain calm and professional attitude while handling a multitude of tasks. Learned how to problem solve varied situations. Learned how to mediate between owner and – more... employees. Easy to get along with co-workers, friendly atmosphere all-around. Hardest part of the job was the fact that sometimes miscommunications occured and something would not get done promptly or correctly. The most enjoyable part of the job was the productive and contributive aspect of it; there was always something new to learn and achieve. – less

Description of a work day
Electric Pallet Operator (Former Employee), Suffolk, Va – March 30, 2012
Pros: cafeteria, free coffee, friendly co-workers
Cons: timed breaks, humid temperatures in the summer, cold in the winter
In the morning upon arriving, I check my manifest to see what orders we have for different clients. Each client uses a different can size. Each can order has a different setting for palletizing. My job is to make sure that each can is palletized electonically with no damage according tothe order specification. This job was a good job that i really enjoyed – more... because it was fast paced. We got our job done and was on to something different. – less
