Pros

Impressive amount of equipment for a small company (autoclaves, CNC, Quality Lab). Owner is amazingly knowledgeable when it comes to composites.

Cons

Lack of Trust from Ownership. Serious issues with Micro Management. No upward mobility. Pay is below market rate. Afraid to take risks to grow the business. Questionable future.

Pros

Interesting work, the facility has great capabilities, stable shift. Overtime available when products are over promised on an undeliverable timeline.

Cons

Micromanagement to the extreme. Owner will not trust employees to do their jobs independently without constant overview. Minimal pay for the work, local warehouses pay better; non-existent training. Constantly changing priorities; "Right and On Time" (the company motto) is very rarely met with right OR on time due to illogical and impossible schedules. Company values are a flavor of the week ordeal, with the latest buzzwords driving some new push into futility. Only chance for promotion is to head to church with the owner. Turnover is so bad that 3 new managers this year lasted 2 weeks or less, and walked out. Beware if looking to ACE for your future. There will be many openings, over and over again.

This field has a five word minimum.

Company culture is racist and sexist. Leadership tops at level 4 and does not keep to their word.
