A very productive and professional workplace
Medical Manufacturing (Former Employee), Doral, FL – September 14, 2012
Pros: incentives were great
A genernal day of work would to help the 1st shift employees meet a daily goal of products produce per shift. Training and cer worktifcation is held almost weekly to proceedure changes and new and revised FDA rules regulation and procedures. My supervior was extremly accessable and easy to talk to with any problems and concerns dealing with. The hardest – more... part of the job would be dealing with equipment failure and having to scrap product due to break down in the assembly line. The most enjoyable part of the is the atmosphere and the quality work we produce. – less

Team Assembler (Former Employee), Miami, FL – September 11, 2012
Pros: lunch was very expensive
this job was the most easiest job i have ever worked at however it was very fun! lunch was great and to conduct a product knowing it's going in someones body can seem pretty scary!! along with the rules and guidelines! no makeup we had to wear scrubs,shoe covers and a mask to ensure the product had no germs. The hard part was conducting 2000 a day. – more... sometimes goals were reached sometimes they weren't. Sadly the company moved and I was layed off – less
