GKN Leadership Employee Reviews
What do you like best about the leadership team?
They are awesome and they rock
at this moment not much
Review from Operations Dept
I have never ever seen so excellent team again.
Nothing honestly, i cant trust them to tell me the truth on virtually anything
The transparancy, communication and the actual personal presence with the team.
I feel safe, valued and respected
Support for our local plant
Not sure seem to have to much on them hard to tell
I think they can be out of sync with us some of the time because they don't spend enough time on the floor. They are usually hidden away upstairs
Review from Operations Dept
can only speak for the Dutch and i appreciate the way they know how to listen en talk to employees on an even level
Review from Operations Dept
Always willing to help when you need something and nice
Review from Engineering Dept
The openness and willingness to listen to new ideas
Review from Operations Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Working with experienced operators when setting up new operations to ensure more efficient operations. Also better training of compaction setup and operations. Internal communications between shifts seem to be sketchy.
Everything people less bullying and
Flowing down clear direction and delegation of tasks
seeing what's really happening on the site instead of looking out of the window
Engaging with & listening to Employees that know their job
Human Resource Department is the worst of all the companies I have ever dealt with or worked ar.
Cohesion, transparancy, responsibliy, accountability and coordination
The Leadership Team needs to work on listening to employees, stop "checking the box" for the different initiatives that are rolled out, and do them correctly. Invest money in things that actually matter, why is a lot of GKN still using paper Work Instructions and Paper Routers and not a MES system.
Review from Engineering Dept
Training and scheduling at work
Review from Operations Dept
Actually learning how to lead people. They tend to not be knowledgeable about the business so they make horrible decisions and never seem to be able to provide clear direction.
Quality control check and laziness
Fairly treat employees the same
Review from Operations Dept
Terrible, terrible move to bring a group from lost business as "directors" of new geographic locations.
Coaching/mentoring, leading staff to the next higher level.
