Pros

Steady work. Great coworkers. Vacation time.

Cons

The quality in the plant has went downhill fast. The management in quality is more worried about sitting in the break room visiting with other management, than getting the job done. Too many different opinions as to what good product is anymore.

Thank you for expressing your concern for the quality of our products. It’s encouraging to know our employees understand the importance of our products and the impact they can have. It is important that management is made aware of specific concerns employees have with regards to product quality. I remind you it is every employee’s responsibility to take action and reach out to any member of the Performance Plastics Fluid Systems Leadership Team where there is concern product quality is compromised. Quality and Safety are everyone’s jobs. Hopefully you have heard by now that we are in the process of building a Fluid Systems Quality Organization. We started the process of hiring new talent in 2014 and continue to build this team that will set the strategy for our Quality Management System, harmonize our plants, and ensure we have the right skills and roles in the plant Quality teams. We count on you and your colleagues to make this journey with us as we strive to be the leader in our industry.

Pros

Everyone including management is really unintelligent; makes an average person really stand out. If you cant stand women or minorities its a great place... very little diversity here.

Cons

No values, lots of punch lines like world class and continuous improvement. Lots of talk but nothing gets done. The culture SUCKS! watch your back at all times... Its all about seniority here, education and experience counts for nothing.
