Pros

Brand recognition Wide varity of product Good benifits

Cons

This post is about the eastern commercial construction division only. After 6 months only, the management was an absolute nightmare and micromanaging a daily routine. There is no room for personal growth or creativity because if you dare to give your input, you will be squashed. The constant yelling and the psychological harassment have been used serval times. I have addressed this matter at the HR that the old-fashioned ineffective methods were no longer the right way to manage people. Things where changing for a couple of days and they kept coming back afterwards. No doubt in my mind that this is a Narcissistic Personality Disorder type of management because this type of managers value themselves by belittling others. Nevertheless, if dismissing a narcissistic pervert helps restore harmony in the company in the short term, it is necessary to question the dynamics that allowed the toxic individual to climb the ladder in the company.

Pros

New, relatively clean facility. Nice location. Facility is small and simple. Easy to learn the equipment.

Cons

Poor communication. No direction from day to day. You will be judged very quickly by colleagues and management will always side with them even when they are in the wrong. Maintenance boss has NO technical knowledge and that becomes evident and problematic very quickly because he can not recognize your strengths and will challenge your judgement, make you do things his way even though he doesnt know what hes doing. Your contributions will not be recognized or rewarded instead management will get hung up on little things that are of no real consequence. They are cheap and dont like to spend money on spare parts or tools. There are almost zero spare parts so whwn equipment breaks you could be waiting for days for the parts to arrive and in the meantime you get blamed for equipment failure when you had nothing to do with the failure, This is where the boss having no skillset comes into play in a negative way, lack of recognition of systematic troubleshooting steps. The money is below average but the facility is small and quite simplistic. The facility is run mostly by foreigners who display prejudice toward US born citizens. Sounds crazy but it is true.

We are very sorry to hear about your bad experience. We work hard to create a great environment for all of our employees and to ensure that company policies are clear and effective, globally. We always encourage employees to speak to their line manager or local HR if they have any concerns or are unhappy with any aspect of their work.
