Pros

I absolutely LOVED this company and was so sad to leave due to personal relocation! This company walks the talk in regards to culture. They truly care about their people and know exacly how important and critical their people are. This company is innovative! If you have a crazy idea that might just work, AWC says "lets give it a try!". I have had the BEST mentors from the Director of Operations to HRBP's who coached and supported me throughout my career growth. No company is perfect but AWC is one who looks at their shortcomings as opportunities of growth and development. I can't express how much I enjoyed this chapter of my career journey. I wish AWC continued success!

Cons

There were times when the plant would exceed corporate expectations but because the company as a whole did not meet goal, thus the plant did not get a bonus. This was very disappointing to the hourly employees, however plant leadership was permitted to reward employees in out of the box ways, such as plant wide cook outs. These were very enjoyable!
