Review from Product Dept

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Listed under leadership concerns. Not a healthy or legal environment

As previously stated, schedule changes with no consideration for the employees family situations. Child care, planned vacations and/or staffing shortages.

The policy is being changed based on certain individuals

Review from Product Dept

The quality of products we are sending out has plummeted due to half of the work force being new hires and we don't have a quality inspector on our shift. There also needs to be some sort of accountability when people repeatedly make the products wrong and know its wrong but send it anyways.

Customer struggle doing business with the company

Need to staff factories appropriately

Change corporate leadership, replace all Senior Directors and the executive leadership team, they are the problem.

THE HR Director is biased , practices favoritism, toxic and had the false attitude

Show people how training someone not scared them away

No training. Forced to work to many hours. Short breaks and lunches. Lack of cleaning. To much paperwork of repeated information. Slowing down production.

Very unsure on how busy it will be, and understaffed.

Review from Product Dept

Lack of communication and lack of availability of materials

Review from Product Dept

HR department and upper management not supporting front line managers.

Review from Product Dept

Hire less socially aggressive managers. Take action against managers who are actively hostile to employees. Treat workers like they aren't disposable, and actually do something about retaliation

Review from Product Dept

safety is horrible, communication as well

Need to deliver on promises to customers and improve every day.
