Evonik Corporation Claimed Company
Evonik is one of the world’s leading specialty chemicals companies. We may not manufacture tires, mattresses, medications, or animal feeds, but Evonik is part of all of those products –and many more. While we often contribute only small amounts of material, those contributions are precisely what make the difference. That's because Evonik products make tires fuel-efficient, mattresses more elastic, medications more effective, and animal feeds healthier. That’s what specialty chemicals are all about. And when it comes to specialty chemicals, we're among the best in the world. read more
It has been great a few times/that shows how far off it is now/asked to provide background history and procedures for engineers but no consideration for the time that takes/pay used to be suitable but now without overtime its not/would make more money back on shift with 1/10 the responsibilities.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Independent/think on the go/know procedures/know operations and equipment details/
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Management & engineering turnover/connect them with experienced advisors they can get help from/increase performance expectations for shift techs with consequences so both production is better & engineering can count on them
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Fewer or shorter meetings/more vacation/more maintenance management staff/more accountability for production operation mistakes(those that are good are discouraged because others make no effort & there is no consequences) /team leaders need mentors or senior advisors for both plant & employee help
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Other US companies and even Germany provide more vacation. Starting salary is too low to get competent shift workers. Suggestions based on plant operating history are ignored. Manager micro manages and doesn't get along with his female assistants. They have all changed positions.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
We are staffed too thin. My hours were cut but I was expected to handle more work. I listed what would others would need to pick up but then I got a bad review when those items fell behind. We need access to someone with experience in rotating equipment. Engineers are all new; need senior advisors.
