Pros

Great place to get a lot of experience on the manufacturing process of metal tubes for the automotive industry.

Cons

Numbers driven business. Owned by investors so it is all about the bottom line. Takes an act of congress to spend over 3k on anything. Doesn't matter if you request a machine that speeds up your manufacturing process. Almost impossible to get money for projects. Engineers beware......Understaffed, overworked, and held back because of financial restrictions. In the 3 years of employment the engineering department has been reduced from 11 to 5. This has created a reactive environment instead of proactive. Not enough manpower to do time studies, review procedures, fixture maintenance, proper work instructions for machines, employee training., etc.

There are no pros anymore

Cons

Discriminatory bosses, your skill and dedication meant nothing if you weren't "certain" individuals. Every ounce of your being is expected to be given, but the moment the "certains" need or want something or are in jeopardy you are the scape goat and/or problem. Was an awesome place at first. Then new owners, and the minor issues of staff got to be to much. 5yrs I was there. My attendance and pride in what I did went to hell. I did all I could to stay but for sake of my mental health and feeling of self worth, I had to quit. Sucks cause there are a few AMAZING people there. The the hell FAR out weighed the good. Main boss would call grown men from other departments vulgar names in front of everyone then when confronted get away with either lying or calling it a joke. This I witnessed myself.
