Helion Automotive Technologies reviews

Work life is abysmal for some employees, while fantastic for others. Systems personnel working until 1-2 AM from home after a long day at work while others naver have to bother with this. A focus on just fixing problems fast as opposed to preventing them in the first place. No planning, new customers are picked up without expanding staff, there is a constant sense of too much to do. Customers get priority based on how much they are paying or when their contracts are up. A 'professional" atmosphere, yet you will hear f-bombs ever 10 seconds.

The list of cons is endless, stick with your current employer before making a switch. We recently had a "Semi Annual Meeting" in which we were asked what we would like to see changed about the company. All suggestions and especially vital ones were adamantly denied or scoffed at by management. They lead us to believe that we were in an open forum where we could speak our minds and after deliberating on it for a few days all ideas were shot down. Helion is not open for discussion, you will work there for poor pay, inadequate management and horrible structure. Executives will continue to live large off the backs of recent college graduates that have no money at all. You will learn quickly why they have BMW's parked out front to overshadow all the junkers out back. I work in desktop support which is the bottom of the barrel in terms of management. They are seldom seen and if you do succeed in cornering them they are the least helpful supervisors i've ever met. You're rated on metrics that you will never know the dynamics of. Whatever the "management" tells you that you need to do for a promotion you will undoubtedly always fall short. They have trouble making eye contact or communication for that matter, most likely because they are detached from the operation and exceptionally slow. If you like pizza or burritos you are in luck, they are super abundant when they want you to work without pay for a "Ticket Closing Party." They promote them as "Optional" but it is made clear that if you don't work late 3 nights a week you will not get your 2% raise after one year. They recently let go of someone that had won the Helion MVP award because they didnt know how to discuss their shortcomings, or should i say HR didnt know how to address it. When they won the award they applauded them on their ability to show up 30 minutes early and staying until all problems were complete. They were let go with such ease it was disheartening. I have been on one project and it is similar to working desktop. The leads of the project department cannot even look at me when they are telling me what i need to do when i arrive on site. I approach them with caution as they are known to throw anyone and everyone under the bus for their own deficiencies. A friend and coworker was fired this year because she sent them on site ill equipped and without any information or meeting prior to the start. The executives are equally hard to speak with and seldom have thoughts of their own, usually just regurgitating whatever is fed to them. If they would subject the company to anonymous reviews they would learn the truth about management. Alas they sit there, watching the company slowly fade and employees leaving.
