      Pros

      stable company. knowledgable employees.

      Cons

      extreme favoritism. I was on both sides of the favoritism. When favored I could do no wrong, when not favored I could not do anything right! certain hourly employees have way too much say and run things more than the supervisors. but as a management employee, it is a good place to "disappear", if you wanna just come in and do ur job and go home everyday, it can be great. but if you wanna change things, LOOK OUT!

      Corrupt Management

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great company for Entry-Level Engineers, although I wouldn't spend more than a couple of years there. They are given a lot of technical work due to the fact that the Senior Engineers are leaving the company. Just don't expect any mentoring, as the Senior Engineers are over-worked and simply don't have time to help you.

      Cons

      Management made it very clear that I was not a core member of the team, even as a reputable and experienced engineer. Any attempt to go above and beyond for my job was viewed as an attack on their leadership and met with verbal harassment. I was often told that my ideas were "stupid". Management would then use my ideas and claim them as their own, since they couldn't provide better ones. If you are a smart and hardworking Engineer, then you will be taken advantage of by management. They will overwork you, leave you with a poor performance review, and claim that they had to do your job for you. Management takes credit for your work, and they most likely receive nice bonuses and raises as a result. Essential members of my team have told me that they also received poor reviews. Management kept us oppressed by giving us vague tasks, unrealistic timelines, and claiming that we couldn't deliver.

      Thank you for your long review and thorough feedback. We take allegations of “corrupt management” and “bullying” very seriously and will investigate all the claims in your post. We realize Hendrickson is not for everyone, however we are very proud to say our turnover rate at the Woodridge facility is less than 5% YTD. From that small group very few have been from our engineering departments and even fewer have been from our Senior Level. To continue to retain our key employees Hendrickson understands we always need to listen to our employees and develop them for the future. To assist with this we recently completed our bi-annual anonymous all employee opinion survey. With the results we will conduct employee round-table meetings and implement improvements from the surveys and discussions. Also, our HR team works in conjunction with our managers and senior leaders to develop individualized training & development plans to continue to develop our future. Directly in regards to your ideas being called “stupid” we have no records of such an incident being turned in or reported. We take this very seriously and ask if you have any additional details on this event to contact the Woodridge HR team. Again thank you for your review and we will take your information and use it to continue to get better as a company. We wish you luck in all your future endeavors.

      Pros

      No mandatory overtime , but you got to know the right people to work overtime.

      Cons

      They hire kids to be area coordinators. Most are bullys and talk to people crazy. Very unprofessional to hire kids to manage kids. Never work at a place were management cusses like this before. They show so much favoritism it's pathetic!
