Pros
Used to be good pay. once was a decent place to work.
Cons
This company has entered such a steep decline one has to wonder if it's on purpose. the company gave a bonus because morale was plummeting, 14 months later they cancel it what message does that send? If layoff's every three months were not bad enough how about forced transfers to lower paying jobs within the plant? feel like you have a say in anything here; you don't. Its do as I say or be punished. Amarillo used to be the pride of Bell and we did good things because they were right. we busted our tails because we liked the place, now it honestly feels like they are trying to run the place into the ground, the only question is why? one thing is for sure, even though 99% of the employees here despise the union; its almost needed nowadays given the rampant abuse of employees. Life outside of work is obsolete, in most areas first shift is a non option as the backlog of employees trying to make it there is long. without seniority time its safe to assume you will never make it to firsts. oh did I mention that the company refuses to acknowledge real safety concerns like eye wash stations but yet feels a regular baseball cap is sufficient head protection. let that be an example of the rampant stupidity that flows within this company. bottom dollar isn't even the driving force of this company; pride is, and not in a good way but instead an ego driven, better than the you mentality that sacrifices its workers morale so that upper management doesn't have to make the difficult decisions.
