Management style can be micro-management like at times, especially when production issues directly affecting KPI are encountered. I understand the need for this to a point, however, the method was obviously flawed as it backfired more often than not and became counter intuitive to team goals (lower moral, no true resolution to issues due to lack of support/resources, etc). Also, the company is VERY lean, to a point where it is more detrimental to the process and employees than helpful. There is no Project Engineer, Safety Engineer, Industrial Engineer, etc at the particular site I worked. Other "engineering" positions are expected to make up for this without the proper resources or knowledge to be successful in these areas. Operator moral is also extremely low, leading to very high turnover rates. This, combined with lack of proper training, leads to higher scrap and more quality issues.
