Pros

It's a weekly pay check.

Cons

High turn over. Very long hours. Need 3 8hrs shifts instead of 2 12 hrs. Too much favoritism in every department. Some don't get pay raises, some get 2 or more pay raises in the same year. Management doesn't have a weekly short meeting with assiocates to review the good and bad news of the week. They pick their favorites for certain jobs. Wrong team leaders on both shifts. Certain team leaders do not show enough respect to associates. Lack of good training. The list of problems with this company is just too long.

Pros

Very Very Very Friendly engineers except managers

Cons

I have worked at Benteler Gebze for 3 months and I am forced to leave the company on 29.04.2015. I have been informed that the reason of my dismission is my openness during a training session organized by HR department, in which there were nearly 15 attendees from all departments. The training (on 10th of April) was about "Time and Stress Management". In this training session the trainer (Mr. Tamer Canturk) advised us " You should set your priorities by yourself and give your 100% effort to finish them on time and with quality, another person's priorities might not be your first priority. " . He also advised us to follow our personal time plan and sometimes to be able to say "no" to manager's requests which would contradict with our personal time plan not to have much stress at work and manage our working time in a better way. I raised the point to him that I sometimes have difficulty to apply this advice. As Customer Quality Expert I obviously have my own priorities such as Customer Complaints, Customer Documents, Quality and Project documents etc.. As I am frequently asked to give my leader's own duties the first priority, I inevidably have issues with my own time and stress management. I will make more effort to follow your advice and manage my time better at work benefiting from this training session." Yesterday, at the last conversation done by the attandence of myself, HR Manager, Quality Manager and General manager, I tried to explain them that my opinions that I shared openly on the training session was only my effort to benefit from trainers experience to improve my personal skills and to be a more beneficial employee for my company. They replied " It's wrong to share your ideas on the training session with all other employees are alongside. You can not criticise us!" . I have never criticised them, I have never used any special name or position at my conversation with the trainer, they all personalized my ideas and punished me with dismissing from my company. There are lots of managers which are unserious and disrepectful. They can give you appreciation for your work 10 days before, after that they can dismiss you 10 days later. Be very careful when choosing this company for your career. Do not choose this company for your career if you are comfortable with you current job. If so your career may be ruined as mine.
