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

Females within the company are severely underpaid. There seems to be no direct connection between work performance & pay increases.

My pay is not equal to the amount of work I do
Review from Operations Dept
sometimes i think i would deserve more pay
Review from Operations Dept
Total restructuring , top to bottom.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Just overall being better people, they use and abuse anyone they can
Some could work a lot harder/put in the same effort ads the rest of the team.
Way too much back stabbing goes on.
Better financial accountability and communication
They need to work on their foul language. They also need to do their jobs without expecting others to do it for them and stop expecting others to help them out so much.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Stick to their principles instead of doing the opposite.
Employee favortism is often seen and credit needs to be given to the employee for a successful accomplishment. Not to the supervisor.
GKN has a very bad system called the good ole boys. Care about the employees they give the company a lot of effort and we wait till the last of the week to tell them we are letting them go. GKN has and continues to be very profit and delivery driven, the company will overlook quality and safety

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
They need to make more effort in keeping employees.
The company is talking the talk with key culture principles but simply not following through on any of them. Follow through!
There is no discussion with customers regarding dissatisfaction of work inviorment
listen to the employees, stop cutting the workforce, and hiring upper management. We have cut our workforce some much but continued filling/hiring regional spots
