Pros

The pay was great, but then again i was working nights. The people are honestly really cool, it's a seriously laid back environment especially at night. The work wasn't backbreaking and your bathroom breaks weren't policed

Cons

The management was kinda strange. I had no idea what to expect from people, and they're non-union, so just keep your head down and your mouth shut at first and take your social cues from the other workers and you should be fine.

Pros

I've been at True for almost 2.5 years. I started out making $13/hr and now I make almost $16/hour. I work on one of the major production lines, and some of the reviews I've read on here that are negative are a bit extreme. Yes, you are expected to make your quota every day (as you should be), but you don't get fired if you don't make it every day. There is an attendance policy: upon hiring you get 3 DU (days unpaid but excused) days, at 6 months you get 5 vacation days, and at your 1 year you get 7 vacation days and 32 hours of PTO (paid time off). I have called into work multiple times unexcused and have not been fired or ever gotten in trouble. I have gotten merit raises every year I have worked there. Obviously if you are going to call into work all the time, or constantly complain to management about what you're being asked to do, you are going to get fired. Anyone who has a decent work ethic knows that. Also, if you are caught working on ANY of your breaks you will get told not to. Not because they want to make your job difficult for you, but because if you were to get hurt, that is on them. They are just looking out for your safety, As far as the heat goes, there are plenty of other jobs that work in far hotter conditions that you do at True, so count your blessings. They tell you when you're interviewed about the summer heat. So, if its not something you can handle, don't work here. Otherwise, don't complain. All in all, I've had a very pleasant experience working at True Manufacturing.

Cons

The only con I really have is I wish I was moved around to different jobs more. I've been in the same area ever since I started working here.

Pros

Beware with caution. They will lead you to believe they are a strong and thriving company but in reality they are struggling to stay afloat. Wish the company well .

Cons

The company would rather layoff new employees that were just hired who work hard and want to make a difference just to keep the existing cry baby employees that they currently have. If you are reconstructing your company you keep your hard working players and get rid of those who performance isn't at par.Thats what keeps your company strong when everyone is working for one goal.
