Pros

very little pros, not worth even an interview

Cons

I am not a disgruntled past employee. The owner doesn't let the experts he hired be experts in their given field. He knows nothing of manufacturing but insists its done his way, which is obvious once you get an understanding of the revolving door that is Ore Designs.

We're sorry to hear you feel that way. We feel a little differently and think the owner actually does know a few things about manufacturing. and he's humble about it too. This is why we've hired new employees to build our new Engineering and Continuous Improvement Departments which are gathering different ideas and asking for new opinions on how to work together better. Regarding turnover, Ore boasts a 6.2% Employee Turnover Rate ...well below the national average of 44.3% for our industry... but we know we still have room for improvement. We want our employees to enjoy working here and we don't shy away from direct feedback, even the difficult feedback. To that point, please continue to share your ideas (frustrations included) so we can address these head on and keep make improvements.

Pros

Fantastic leader (CEO) who cares about the company and it's employees. He's given a bad rap by those who don't perform (they blame him for his high expectations rather than stepping up and actually contributing) but he's the best boss I've ever had. He cares and is generous and involved.

Cons

Building the same thing everyday gets easy ...and boring. Building something new every day is challenging ...and offers growth. The fact that we're a custom order shop presents new obstacles on a daily basis so we're always facing a new challenge we've never encountered before.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Ore's Founder and CEO is 100% dedicated to the company and sets the standard high. He's also dedicated to those he employs and we all work hard together to keep growing and moving forward. We'll continue to invest in Ore's leadership, and all employees alike. We'll also continue working on the challenges of custom-design and made-to-order products in an effort to make Ore Designs better every day.
