Pluspunten
Never boring; improved training SWI’s (previously had ZERO formal orientation pre 2020); 24/7 IT help and an open line of communication with reporting and supporting management. OT opportunities in Operations. More exposure to plant operations, safety stock timelines and to cross border CBP requirements of NA crossings. Moderate opportunities for advancement. Support is readily accessible when a question or problem.
Minpunten
Firm salary caps within “departments” and levels; management will not recommend for advancements-that’s solely on the employee; shared team and building bonus buckets are unfairly evened out among “averages.” HR has broken policy multiple times, leaving workers confused, over worked and understaffed. Training is done by multiple people and has been unimpressive with new hires, resulting in continued turnover. For a F500 company, there is barely any formal orientation. Most is trial by fire. Company terminated hot spots for on call weekends, requiring employees to be grounded to home internet with no assistance to pay off either utility including cell provider as post-COVID has all calls forwarded to personal cell phones. Technological advances have either failed or have not shown actual improvements in current processes, causing additional work until a permanent fix is made (lengthy lead times).
