Pros

Great group of people to work with.

Cons

*Unethical management and accounting processes. *Company allows harassment and protects management at all cost. *High turnover. *Usually one to 2 people per area overworked, while others lay back and show no pride in what they do. Most are careless and cause others additional and unnecessary work. *No training - management picks and chooses who to train. *Demoralizing management - would much rather talk down to people instead of lifting them up and motivating them. *No department meetings. Everyone marches to their own tune.

Thank you for your review of Prysmian Group and your time with our company. I agree with you that our team is a talented, great group of people to work both with and alongside. One of our core values is “Integrity,” which is central to our team’s ability to deliver to customers at every level. Based on your review, it seems as if you had a different experience during your time at Prysmian, as we’ve heard positive feedback from many other employees. While this is unfortunate, I do know the team in Lexington, from leadership to interns, all strive to demonstrate integrity throughout their work, which is a huge part of our success. We are continually developing the scope of our training programs to ensure everyone has the proper resources, knowledge, and tools to meet both customer and personnel goals. Thank you for your comments, and I will make sure that all your feedback is communicated to the leadership team.

Pros

Some of if not most people are friendly and supportive. Okay-ish benefits. Slightly better than the average I would say. Flexible hours for flex40 and salary people. In my particular case, they are very flexible when it comes to doctor appointments and kids' activities.

Cons

Emotional and mental damage from a toxic environment. Gossip galore and everyone is eager to point fingers or say "not my job". Managers who literally yell and curse at employees. Everyone is overworked and underappreciated. Sexism runs rampant. Communication between mangers, departments, and floor operators is non-existent. FAVORITISM EVERYWHERE! Certain people are treated differently because they are "in" with the right people in management. No one is treated equally. The machinery on the floor is old and falling apart.
