Maria Mendoza Shift Lead

Resilux is a great company to work for.

From day one, I loved that everyone was welcoming. My trainer took care to explain every detail on process and procedures. If you are considering Resilux, come prepared with a positive attitude and ready to work as a team. Don’t be afraid to go beyond expectations, this is how I earned my Lead Packer/Supervisor position.
