Timken reviews about "training"

The pay is still a bit lower than other manufacturers. Insurance premiums have skyrocketed in the past couple of years.

Not much scope of growth of non sales and scm employees. roles not changes in finance with people continuing in their roles for decades

Extremely poor training and a culture that allows people to target individuals for extreme consequences for errors while excusing others from the same level of risk. All they think about is Quanity. Push you hard to get #'s and when you make a mistake they write you up

Apathetic supervision. The manager is either being lied to about team members behaviors and performance or complicit. Four workers with tenure run the shop and work actively to run new employees out. High turnover. The shop is poorly organized. Priorities change minute to minute. Lack of new employee onboarding program and no on the job training.

Not sure if the direction company going forward is the right one. Need better top management în order to extend market share.

My direct management and supervisor express a general apathy toward issues I bring to them. I have to constantly make sure that I am being paid correctly and that deductions are correct. My supervision forgot that I was taking vacation even with ample notice had not submitted paperwork. The environment is extremely unsafe do to crowded conditons and heavy forklift traffic. There is little to no on the job training. My manager, supervisor, and two senior employees all gang up on new hires and work to whittle down their self esteem. I have seen 5 coworkers leave because of this. My coworkers group up and passive agressively trash talk each other to the point where no one is happy at work. My supervision is unable to keep things confidential. In an effort to cover this up they pass the "supervisor" hat around the engineering department like a Frisbee.

Extremely poor training and a culture that allows people to target individuals for extreme consequences for errors while excusing others from the same level of risk.

Poor training programs. Little room for advancement. Great people that went unappreciated are leaving in droves. Probably fewer than 5 salary people in the plant are worth keeping.

Internal politics, but less than in other companies I worked for; otherwise this was the company I lived working for, having the chance to explore different positions with regional and global exposure
