Worst Company I've Ever Worked For! STAY AWAY!!!! SERIOUSLY

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits....cant think of anything else positive to say.

Cons

Hours change constantly, High turnover with employees, VERY VERY Racist organization against white people. Most terrible excuse for management I have ever witnessed, They Lie, deceive, harass, discriminate, clueless on how to run a business in particular a machine shop, this is what happens when HR will hire unqualified people for management have zero credentials for the position/s. Their idea of management is browbeat work stupid hours, hide their failures and blame employees and in other cases fire people to cover up their inadequacies. HR takes no corrective action regarding management...they can do no wrong. TOXIC culture unlike any I have seen.

Pros

Decent medical and other employee benefits. Dedicated operations team.

Cons

Low compensation. Pitiful bonuses paid...but plenty left to build a new palace of an office. The Human Resources team has implemented a Shared Services concept that has made the HR function abhorrent. As a manager and director, this made my job in Operations extremely difficult. -Terrible response time to any question I had. HR Reps lacked a clear understanding of our business. -Instead of talking to an actual person they push you to call a 1-800 number. -I spent 4-6 hours every payday on the phone trying to figure out why my employees were paid incorrectly. -My 401(k) was screwed up and I was offered no remedy to address the market gains that I lost out on.

Successful growing company with complex enterprise politics undermined by Toxic culture and non existent HR Management.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great platform to learn multinational extreme politics. Company is growing so there is access to participate in interesting large scale projects. Experience the results of applying Lean principles (to everything). Top management has vision but risk aversion mines execution. Weir name still captures some interesting smart people into their staff.

Cons

Aggressive management breaks employees into submission, Toxic Culture ("Weir way"), Ethics in the region not aligned to group written standards, Not really a multicultural workplace, High turnover - not a place to make a career if you are not under someone wing. No interference/protection of employees from HR.
