Pros

I love working at Reworld as we have a mission to reimagine waste for a better world. All of our company plans and efforts are aligned with our purpose.

Cons

Not all producers in the community take responsibility for the waste they generate and there are not enough incentives or regulations to push them.

Pros

Pay and benefits are above average Work is challenging

Cons

Senior Management is focused on Lean Manufacturing to a fault, with no concept of the practical aspects of running a facility. The entire senior management team consists of former GE employees, and they bring the toxic GE culture with them. The company is cut throat and the managers enjoy publicly humiliating and belittling employees. The facilities are old and in need of maintenance, but there is little interest in investing in them, making the place largely unsafe. As a manager, you get asked to do things that are unethical. There is too much of a DEI push. Managers will interfere in the day to day decisions of their direct report managers and make personnel decisions around their managers. I left the company because my manager and HR were interfering too much in my business preventing me from executing the goals that were given to me when I started. As a manager, you get no support from your managers. They belittle and intimidate you rather than motivate you. They manage by fear. Long-tenured employees have been pushed out without getting taken care of (medical bridge, retirement, etc). Bottom line - culture is toxic, management does not support personnel, workplace is generally unsafe due to lack of investment. Stay away.

Pros

Many great, hardworking people work there. Good place to work if you are looking for an entry level trade-type job that can grow into a career.

Cons

Upper management is too focused on administering policies and not committed to doing what is right by their employees. Work-life balance is not good.
