By far the worst pressing plant in the U.S. The sad thing is, they can make a well-pressed record when they want. As the vinyl revival took off this plant took on way too many orders and the priority became shoving things out the door without respect to quality. They've never been a top-tier plant but compare what they were doing say ten years ago versus the last few years. Defects on LPs are around 1/3 to 1/2: non-fill, off-centered, orange peel, etc. - just horrible. It's gotten bad enough that if I know something is pressed here I try not to buy it and will just get the release on CD or lossless digital if I can. The worst part is they are still one of the largest plants in the country and even the world (I believe only GZ is larger at this time) so a ton of stuff is pressed there.

i just opened Childish Gambino - Awaken, My Love!...: Sides A & C are heavy scratched, Side D has some strange remains of a kind of sticker. The whole release is full of fingerprints and the Download code for mp3 files... in short: not really "we are committed to preserving it in a way that honors its important place in musical history" [quote from urpressing(dot)com]
