I was able to see how things functioned from every level at this company. There wasn't a single department that could be relied upon. The Molding department became the scapegoat for everything, so naturally they resented everyone and would do the bare minimum to work with other departments. The Assembly department had this attitude that they were perfect, even though they had no ability to follow a work instruction - which means that standardization of processes didn't exist. The Paint department was so reliant on a handful of people and whenever there was turnover or absenteeism, they fell down and couldn't function. The Purchasing department was so inhumane and treated their employees with so little respect that they were in constant turnover mode. The Quality department was so inexperienced and had no consistency or knowledge as to what a good part was. The Customer Service group had no clue about how business worked and were always making empty promises to the customer. The Engineering department was actually good, but their communication skills were minimal, which caused problems elsewhere. The Production Control group was as corrupt as any department could ever be. I watched as the manager for that department ordered his employee to falsely manipulate the data for meetings and information that went directly to the customer. Upper Management is guilty of many things, including lying to the customer, manipulating data, nepotism, giving special rights (favoritism), and creating an uncomfortable and hostile working environment. Anyone with any ambition or self dignity needs to stay as far away as possible from this company. The people who thrive the most here all share the same traits, lazy, backstabbing, corrupt, no business sense, no people skills, and have no conscience or soul.
