Great place to be a button pusher or if your just new to the field. Clean. Owner has great cameras making him an excellent micromanager for any task to be done. We get our work uniforms professionally taylored so it will fit you furrfectly.

Cons

The owners. Hr. The 63 page rulebook you have to sign and agree. No direction or chance for advancement. Set lunches. Owner changes his mind on everything.

Thank you very much for your feedback. Social media has been a great thing in that it allows the public ready access to information that was not accessible in years past. Unfortunately it also allows anyone to broadcast untruths that are difficult to defend. Yes we have a very clean factory, yes we dress our staff with free top end clothing and ask that they dress professionally. Yes we offer to tailor them. We are focused on the training and advancement of any employee who is willing to dedicate themselves to being better at their job. We have just recently advanced a number of employees to higher level positions and increases in pay. The key: they wanted it and they earned it. We have members of our Team that started out at near minimum wage and now earn six figures – they deserve it. To say there is no room to advance is the farthest thing from the truth. Any manufacturing shop our size is equipped with cameras on and around the shop floor. They protect a multi-million dollar investment in machines, equipment, and most especially our employees. They are used to record real time events to assist us in evaluating our processes and in some cases identifying significant problems. No one at Acero is staring at Cameras, this is simply not true. We will not apologize for a handbook. This is fundamental to every company our size. A quick review will point out that a great deal of most handbooks include federal and state mandated policies and is a best practice when it comes to serving our work force. Yes we have set lunches. We also have a time to start and end your shift, this is how we run an efficient factory.... We do recruit heavily from the tristate area and across the nation. We all know that there is a national shortage of labor for all industries, and industries where high skills are required like precision machining has been hit especially hard. We plan to never stop recruiting for the best and brightest staff. The name Acero Precision means something very special to our customers and employees. It reflects our strong sense of pride and respect for ourselves, the shop, our products and the people we serve. We did rebrand the company once, in 1992 so the remark about name changes we do not understand.

Pros

Nice clean facilty with some new machines and older machines. They even painted the new machines to match the old machines.

Cons

Management is the absute worst I have ever seen in real life or on tv! It's has a cult like vibe to it.

Thank you for the feedback - whoever you are? Our records do not have a Senior Manufacturing Engineering Technician leaving our company in the last 12 months. However, we appreciate the recognition that we are a nice clean facility and we take care of our equipment!

Pros

Clean environment. Many employees were very nice. Decent parking. Employees paid on time and checks didn't bounce. It's really hard to think of any Pros.

Cons

The owner is a bully who thinks the employees are the enemy. This company wins the prize for worst people I ever worked for.

It must be a very interesting career path when you establish a ranking system for the worst companies you have worked at. It may suggest that the problem is not the company. However, reviewing your ranking system it appears that we did very well except for the owner. The one person responsible for the facility, the workforce, the parking, and checks that don’t bounce. Bad paychecks - now that would be a company that everyone would agree does not treat employees well. And as you confirmed this is not an issue at Acero Precision.
