productive, monotenous

Labourer, Shipping (Former Employee) - Ashburn, ON - 25 February 2017

Interesting group environment, ability to change jobs day by day was important. I learned to work with other people and developed my interpersonal skills. Often long days with no idea of when the day will finish can be difficult

Enjoyed the experience

Assembly Worker (Former Employee) - Geenwood - 4 April 2016

I really enjoyed the experience I got at this job. Unfortunately I was getting sick from the 20 various chemicals I was working with it was very difficult for me to continue to work there. Although the company does have high standards of safety for their employees it was affecting my health therefore I couldn't stay anymore.

Long hours and loud environment

Line Worker (Current Employee) - Ashburn, ON - 27 March 2016

Typical day is usually very busy, lots of orders. You work until all your orders are complete so no set hours, part-time people don't get paid extra on holidays or get holidays off. Hours can be very long. Lots of machines running all the time so it can be loud and you often have to talk loudly or yell to be heard, but they play the radio while you are working.

Pros

breaks every two hours, free coffe, occasional free lunch/dinner

Cons

Long hours, no set end time
