Review from Operations Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
CEO is alwas some scumbag that makes to mutch
leadership lining their own pockets while their employees are left in the cold. leadership taking credit for the work employees do
executive leadership, upper management, middle management and first line supervisors only care about profit.....NOTHING else
decline in accountability for employees - too much emphasis on blaming the supervisors rather than take responsibility for management's past mistakes
Review from Operations Dept
We are chasing our tails, because we don't have the right stuff to work with we have to improvise then go back and change everything we did before. Its ridiculous, wast of time and on a safety note your running fork trucks twice as much and you n day shift it get very crowded with traffic in the mil

Review from Product Dept
The machine shop general manager has no idea what he is doing when managing a machine shop. Besides, he has an attitude that he is better than everyone else. He says some people "are beneath him."
Review from Operations Dept
Alcoa/Arconic knows about the problems at our site but refuse to address them because at the end of every month we make our numbers.

50-80 hour weeks without fair compensation due to being a salaried-exempt employee, poor leadership from the executive team
