Pluspunten

If you can find something positive about this place, you must have been working elsewhere. In all fairness, there were some very nice and smart people, but because they are smart, they tend to leave and find something better for themselves.

Minpunten

Pay is nothing to write home about, neither are their benefits. Mediocre at best. Why I took a job here is beyond me. Certain managers are demeaning and belittling. some are just plain LAZY!! A lot of uneducated and unqualified people in their positions which led to a very disorganized and poorly run organization. HR Department needs to be run out of town and revamped with some qualified happy HR people, as does their Materials Group. How many times does a department need to turn over before they start looking at the people running that department. Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. Not sure HR knows the meaning of their job and what an HR department is supposed to do. Good grief, get out of your office, walk around and talk to your people. SMILE! Encourage a welcoming environment. Good luck getting answers from HR too Making complaints fall on deaf ears. They don't care about their employees. I do not know first hand, as I don't have 401K, but would hear people complain about their 401K deferrals not being deposited in a timely manner and have made deposits AFTER the Federal deadline and getting excuse after excuse as to why it's not in their accounts. I do know a little bit about that, and they can be in some deep doo-doo if they keep doing that. Overall, this place sucks, but I'm not surprised. After reading the reviews on the parent company, seems those people feel the same way and actually have it worse than us. Take a job here at your own risk. Chances are you'll regret the decision and will be looking again. If you do work there, watch your back. Keep to yourself. Lots of fake people there. Be careful who you trust. So glad I got out and am in with a great company with a GREAT culture that takes pride in their employees and products!! This company is doomed to fail at the hands of MAT Holding. GM's hands are tied. Nice and smart guy, but not sure he'll be able to make a difference.

Worked as an Engineering Intern for about 6 months. VERY engaged with interns (unlike a lot of auto companies). Not just an overpaid delivery boy/gopher, they make sure you are actually learning and give you REAL assignments that actually contribute to the success of the company. As always you get a good bit of excel/administrative tasks like everywhere, but you actually get alot of time hands on with the parts performing actual engineering tasks like failure analysis, root causing and PV/DV stuff, highly highly recommend to interns looking to actually grow they're skillset and not just collect a paycheck. Pay for interns is very competitive for the area. Company atmosphere is awesome, everyone is joking all the time and even when they're behind on deadlines the teams never let it get them down. Company does regular BBQs and picnics and stuff like that to keep the employees engaged. Definitely working hard to keep employees happy.

Minpunten

No cons for an intern, intern life was great here. As for salaried engineers; they seemed to be having trouble keeping engineers while I was there. In the 6 months I was present it seemed that almost 80% of the engineers in the building had left and only about 60% were replaced with new hires (they were adamantly working to continue hiring the remaining 20% when I left, they just hadn't landed anyone yet). Considering how awesome the work atmosphere is, I can only assume this was due to compensation that was not competitive to other companies in the area (although as an intern I can't be sure as I don't know what the engineers made). It seemed like engineers were just using the company as a place to gain income while they searched for something with better pay.

No pros to speak of

Minpunten

-Claim to be like a family business, but I think they mean the dysfunctional type of "family" -Best performers are given 99% of the workload, where the worst performers are given 99% of the raises -Data is constantly fudged by engineering to make failed tests seem like they passed -Priorities are nonsense, safety hazards are ignored, maintenance is pushed off, but at least there's a dart board that nobody uses in the cafeteria -Management doesn't give a f*ck about you, even when injured, they don't do anything to solve the root cause, or even ask if you're ok -Every all-employee meeting going over the financials is "we're losing money still, but keep up the good work team" idiocracy
