Interesting daily challenges, but lack of management support - werkgeversreview Plant Engineer bij USG

Culture, people, pay, benefits, hybrid model

Recent change at CEO - not sure how he's going to be, but he was mentored by old old CEO and that guy was amazing!

Easy work, If you like just going through the motions this place has you covered

My perspective is coming from a desk role and not someone out on the floor. With that said, I did not enjoy my time working for this corporation. They farm out the majority of their work. Which in turn has caused quite a few clueless people to end up in manager roles. It doesn't help that there are some older people working in this department who don't want to change with the times. Which means you constantly have to update 2D drawings to add viewpoints simply due to someone not wanting to learn or use 3D software. If you have a few years of experience under your belt I would avoid this place simply due to the lack of growth you will experience. You end up feeling like a glorified secretary because it all feels like meaningless paperwork and emails. Even for the project engineers which mostly just bring in outside contractors to repair and mainting the facility. They really push safety but in my view it's to their own hindrance. They focus so strongly on it that at a certain point it just becomes mumble jumble. They make it a certain safety issue a main highlight. Then come up with some terrible new piece of equipment to implement that will end up not being used the majority of time. If you want to actually learn about manufacturing and grow your skill set. Avoid this place. But if you want an easy job without any challenges you would love it there.
