Pros: the salary, employee morale
Cons: no thank you, no employee recognition, long hours.
The pay at this company for management is excellent. There is a lot of pressure to succeed however not all tools necessary to effectively perform the job is provided. There is a culture in management to point the finger and terminate someone as a scapegoat without really trying to resolve the root cause of the problem. This provides insecurity, mistrust
– more... and instability within the management ranks. The frontline employees are enthuiastic in wanting to provide a quality and good product and put their heart and soul in doing so. There is not a lot of interaction between upper management and frontline employees and therefore a general mistrust of management exist between the frontline employees and middle and upper management. A typical day at work involved running a production line and handling various technical problems that causes unacceptable product quality. Many of these issues are mechanically related and requires the intervention of a maintenance staff for repair. The co-workers are dedicated to performing their duties and know their jobs very well. The knowledge of the frontline employees are not taken in consideration by management when problems arise on the production line and therefore many errors are made in redesigning or even repairing breakdowns on the line.
The most enjoyable part of the job is the enthuiasm seen in the front line employees face when there is success. – less
