Pros

This company is part of group of much larger companies involved in petro-chem industry. Large size allows for good benefits. Public transit is outside the factory, and is inside Toronto.

Cons

The management act like high school children, secret cliques backstabbing other people. The new employees are set-up as fall guys when leadership messes up. Leadership is afraid of the shop supervisors, so nothing changes and this company is stuck in same condition for passed 10 years. The shop is dirty and run down, BIRD POOP is a big problem. VERY COLD in winter.

Pros

Experience with multiple different systems and great customers. The company services several domestic and foreign companies. The culture represents respect from all employees.

Cons

Company is down sizing and considering outsourcing much of its work. The company focus has gone largely to meet the bottom dollar.

Thank you for your feedback! We agree, we work with great customers and we also appreciate your comment on a respectful work environment, that is something we are very proud of. An environment where everyone challenges the status quo and innovates, but does it in a respectful manner. The vision at Koch has remained consistent, to create value for society and to do so utilizing resources most efficiently. We apply our MBM business philosophy to innovate, improve, and transform ourselves to create greater value for our customers and greater fulfillment for employees. As our Chairman & CEO recently stated, with the rapidly changing nature of business through technology advancement, “virtually everyone’s role will change.” As a part of this change we have to ensure employees fully embrace emerging technology and practice all of our guiding principles, especially change, principled entrepreneurship, and value creation.
