Poor leadership in Brea site

Business Outlook

Pros

Small company feeling. On a regular day, leadership will throw anyone under the bus to protect themselves. No wonder there is a high turnover rate.

Cons

Leadership, clueless quality management, bird-brain program management, and people chasing the carrot.

Business Outlook

Pros

The job is easy but it is very meticulous and you must be high attention to detail.

Cons

Everything is handmade so faults do show up fairly often and wouldn't be no issue except for the manager over the entire one half of the building doesn't understand this and consistently micromanages people consistently rushes them and makes more parts fail and doesn't seem to understand the word no. After he was reported to HR he no longer came over but we consistently take notes on our work for what we were doing "wrong" and made sure to let us know. He's been there maybe 4 months.

Pros

The work environment here is fantastic. People are nice and genuinely care about the work and the company. I never feel weighed down by what I've been asked to do. They are really great about working with you if you do have an issue or need help. I actually feel heard here.

Cons

Nothing bad to say actually.
