Good money, not bad benefits. Employee Retention is trash because general employee support and well being is at the bottom of importance. It is a Union shop so it was a constant battle between company and employee (union).

Pros and Cons
You could eat the bread that was out of date. (Still good just wouldn't get to the store on time)
The amount of value placed in employee's was lacking

There’s no communication within the supervisors.There’s no way someone can come to supervisor and complain about a coworker because they will confront them.That’s not good.
