I was a former employee at bang and i had many different roles pressman supervisor etc... Bang has cut thier makeready times down to the bare minimum which is good but they charge the customer a flat rate which is typically twice as much at least on press. Then the real crime is the paper thats charged. Is as much as 6 times the actual amount used and bang keeps the excess. Typically the makeready on sheet fed is 200 sheets or less on 4 color work or 4 over 4 work. Bang has a habit of not complying with state and federal regulations with chemicals in the work place. Food in proximity to chemicals breaks and getting paid for time clocked in. They tend to round hours to next lower level.
Bang has thier own rules that they play by because they are above the law and because they gross about 30 million a year. Nobody has a big enough bank account in this area to challenge them. I could go on and on about this company but i have better things to do, like count the grains of sand on my living room carpet
