Pros

There are no positives to working here. Run.

Cons

Terrible uneducated Management- they do not care about employees and are unwilling to listen to any new ideas. Long, difficult hours and if a minimum of 10 hours or more are not worked you are looked at as lazy.

We appreciate your comments as we believe all feedback from our employees is valuable. Based on the information you provided, I'm not sure if you worked in a corporate office or manufacturing plant, but our standard operating hours are from 8:30am-5:30pm. Our management team is committed to helping the company and its employees continuously grow and succeed. We are excited that we have merged with NCI Building Systems and that we will be under Jim Metcalf's new leadership. We hate to hear that you feel our team did not care about our employees and were unwilling to listen to new ideas. I realize you are a former employee, but if there's anything further you'd like to share with a member of our HR team please email me at social@plygem.com. I'd like to put you in touch with the right person so they can learn more about your experience in previously speaking with our management team. Thank you. -Ashley

Pros

The pay is pretty great. Your fellow employees are super diverse and it allows you to learn a lot about people of all cultures and walks of life.

Cons

You will be overworked and under valued. Depending on their relationship, leads and supervisors will absolutely talk about the employees in inappropriate ways. You will be treated with respect to your face unless you advocate for yourself. Ninety-nine percent of the time, there are cliques within leadership and generally they have very unfortunate views on people who were not born in the US regardless of their work ethic. If you excell at your job, you will be recognized and praised some days and scolded other days for not taking on the work of three different people. Some individuals don't actually care about the job and are just there for a paycheck. Safety is regarded as important in theory but not in reality. Quality is deemed as important, but in reality no one cares. Work-life balance is actually non-existent, no matter how much they claim otherwise.
