General Cable Employer Reviews

• Installed communication systems in the office and production area following specification, while implementing safety procedures and protocol.

No sick days. Poor morale. Everyone was out for themselves.

I learned how to operate an extruder. Typical day was spent running an extruder. making sure compound did not run out and changing reels on takeups and payoffs

•Conducted electrical testing on power lines
•Tested insulation for material break downs. Write a report on how long it took to break down and where the breakage occurred.
•Checked raw materials for chemical breakdown stress intensity
•Trouble-shot plastic and raw materials to determine the breakage point
•Classified materials used for certain types – more... of cables
•Conducted cold-bend testing on 2-3 inch cable – less

Easy to learn, lots of opportunities, opportunity for advancement.

Come into work, conduct a safety meeting every morning. Collect wire to measure Copper variances in the lab.
Work with management and operators daily to complete tasks.
I've learned to use many of the databases used within the company.

I didn't work here too long and the reason was the pay. I was promised a certain amount within a certain time and just didn't work out this way. I started low because of their promise for increase.
I had the opportunity to change jobs (IP) and General Cable couldn't come up with hourly rate as promised.
I really like the co-workers.
No complaints.

General cable is a Great place but, the cost of living is going up so much that it is really hard to make it.

I liked working there. I was transitioning from working overnights to working early mornings. It was hard and there I couldn't do it. I wish I could still work there.

Good working environment, friendly personnel. When there were difficulties there were always someone willing to give you a hand. It was a great experience, that I am willing to repeat.

a good place to work.co-workers are very helpfull.the company has good people in mamagment

A typical day includes me operating extruder machine. I learned many automotive maintenance techniques. Management in this case are only concerned about profit. My co-workers at this company were great. I'm still friends with some of them until this day. Hardest part of this job is working outside. The most enjoyable part is that I get to work on cars.

Troubleshooting the machines that makes cable. People that i work are great. Learned so much about electronic and electrical components.

a typical day was always interesting. There was always one person that would make you laugh.

Great place to work if you are family oriented and have a desire to be part of a family.

EL TRABAJO ERA AMENO YA QUE ME EL AMBIENTE LABORAL ERA AGRADABLE.

Ambiente agradável com colaboradores bons para se trabalhar.

el aprendizaje requiere un tiempo tanto para el montaje como para el funcionamiento de las lineas, con lo cual la ayuda por parte de los operarios con experiencia y los jefes de la planta, es escepcional. Durante todo el tiempo facilitandote tanto la integracion como cualquier necesidad para el desempeño de mi trabajo, en cualquier momento; herramientas, – more... prendas de seguridad, o cualquier esplicacion necesaria.
Montar maquina fue lo mas dificil de aprender.
A primera hora me mirava el material que devia entrar en las maquinas, los carretes vacios, con la ayuda del relevo del turno anterior al mio. – less
