      Management Issues

      Extrusion operator
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Higher pay than other companies in the area (even after they voted out the union). 18 week’s paternity leave 3 week paid vacation 6% 401k match

      Cons

      Management like to watch people through the camera without cause for investigation. (Lack of trust/ respect). Poor communication throughout entire company. Poor training, trainers without valuable experience teaching new hires. Lack of experience needed to successfully run important processes. Lack of concern from management when it comes to maintenance and turnarounds. Poor financial planning from upper management. Once they don’t like you they find a way to push you out.

      Not a diverse organization

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Big brand name Multiple segments and ease of movement between them

      Cons

      Not a diverse organization. New ideas are not welcome or appreciated, even if they say they are. Highly toxic culture. The principles and all other things they preach about are nothing but lip service.
