He is a very understanding
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
leadership, management, and how to deal with people
Wrong people in management wrong information given by lower managers to high executives
Become leader and stand for their clients interests
good place to start work
They need to get better at production and stop trying to be so nice. Our local leaders try too hard to make their employees happy instead of trying to make them earn their pay.
Review from Operations Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Union Protection for the commonly negotiated contracts
Review from Product Dept
It serves as it should
Their 401k match is great!
The overall care and welfare provided, not just the absolute monthly take-home salary is beyond complaint/comparison.
Review from Engineering Dept
Bonus, base salary and retirement plan
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Not as per market norms
I got higher position without being fairly paid. Experienced people do not earn as much as people that came from outside. It seems it's normal nowadays, to change job every 2 years to be paid fairly.
not enough compare to my qualification and experience
better allowances is required to cover the expenses.
Yes, I do feel undervalued
What are some of the best things about your team?
collaboration / care/culture/ help/ freedom
We have great collaborative spirit

We work together to create ideas and improve our quality systems.
Helpful and team players in general.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Following rules and expectation of the company. HR to make sure they do.
Review from Operations Dept
Stonehouse has s field of which iis being used by one of the service centre employees this us never advertised for other to have the opertunity to use it, what funds are paid for the use of the field how are they paid, can we see clarity of how they are paid ,and a fair system for others to use
I love my coworkers……but, there is A LOT of drama. Again, this is due to the lack of leadership and accountability. When employees can do as they please, you have anarchy, not productivity.
Review from Product Dept
Most of the people that are hired in the last 5-7 years, do not care about anything, including the company's future. They feel they deserve a paycheck for doing nothing. Management needs to nip some of these attitudes in the bud to transform the attitude plant-wide.

Making a difference in the quality of my team and customer satisfaction.
Teamwork, willigness to satisfy customer with our job done good.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Well lets see, my bosses lie to me, lie to the customers, and to corporate, they lie about policies and WE DONT HAVE AN HR REPRESENTATIVE, so our bosses are just running our company into the ground and dont care. There is no punishment for being a bad employee, no reward for being a good one.
Review from Operations Dept
high business pressure and micromanagement
Review from Sales Dept
Lack of accountability. Our plant has an attitude problem. They have become entitled, lazy workers. They want to be paid but do not want to work, or help ABB succeed. You fix it by making employees accountable for their work and getting rid of those that do not care about ABB.
Review from Product Dept
Too much drama and negativity everyday. There is too much focus on the drama and none on production. The leaders at our local plant try to make negative employees happy, instead of getting rid of them. We fire NO ONE !!
