Ducommun reviews

Management lacking in true leadership qualities and follow through. Many employees are quick to point the finger to find fault with another employee. Negative culture. A number of long-term employees have only worked at Ducommun (or previous company name) and continually grumble about their job but don’t look elsewhere. They don’t have well-rounded work work experience and continually do things “the way we’ve always done things”, which can be very inefficient. Redundant work. Lacking in technology which makes room for errors.

Little or no communication from management. Local management at the Tulsa plant had extremely high turn over. Every 8 months to a year managers were replaced. Management didn't value hard workers who got a lot done any more than the slackers who did very little. High stress, long hours, and very little appreciation. Lots of bullying, backstabbing, and intimidation. If you were "favored", then you were protected. If not, then you were pushed out by previously mentioned means. Everyone was always over worked. Most worked 6 days a week for most of the year. That could be a pro if you like that but don't count on ever having a work/life balance at this company. Raises were locked in at 2.5% no matter how high or low your performance. Very poor A/C system; always very hot (average 80 degrees) on manufacturing floor during the summer.
