Nothing I'm the leader ha
Very helpful and respectful to others
Trusts appropriate team members, believes in the company
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
See the truth. Stop lieing, listen to your younger adjusters, and judge on actual job performance not male comerodory and gender
Everything they need improvment on everything
Communication. Treating us like humans with lives outside work.
Review from Operations Dept
Stop harrassment that always happens there
Knowledge about paper bags manufacturing.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Have an opportunity to decide what is best for my family and choosing a great package for them for me
Great pay severence good.ha ha
401 plan and the match amount
The insurance is awesome cant complaint
The 401k contribution matching is standard
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Just let me do my job with out being paired up with a potential sexual partner. Let me operate and let me earn my raise. Wich hould have happened a year ago and treat me as an equal. Not you fragile little girl
They pushed me to learn other jobs i wasnt payed to do they made me do other work that wasnt in my pay grade
Because I work 12 hour shifts in a hot area and still don't make enough to live on my own. To buy a house. To not worry about money. If I got paid enough to freaking live and got more vacation time to actually live instead of working my life away.
Review from Operations Dept
More pay they have let people go or they quit. Then they put there work on me. Then when you you say that was there job when you going to replace them you get a reply like that's your job now. Then try to rush you when your work get back up. Like I'm doing 2 jobs as a material handle and shipping
Employees of other companies make the same or more per hour as employees at our factory for working at picking/shipping facilities with me less labor or skill. People are being hired at McDonald's for the same start pay as we receive
What are some of the best things about your team?
We work good together and we look out for one another
Willingness to learn throughout working without power for hours, figuring out what to do without a steady source of internet and management team not knowing what to do and not on the same page.
We seem to all get along for the most part, yes tempers get in the way but are usually delt with respectfully on both ends. People are easy to get along with, communication and training are not the best but we have fun with it.
Most my team members are respectful and fun to work with. I am the sister in the shop to them. My master adjuster is very personal and willing to batt for his team. He only has ever been unfair to me went Frasier get involved. As Frasier insists I don't listen to anyone. My team sees differently.
Working together as a team to give great quality and getting the job done. I come in every day to lift everybody spirit so that we can get this job done safely and good expectations of our company.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Do their jobs and stop burying their heads in their cell phones.
They could clean up after themselves and do the job the right way.
Review from Operations Dept
They need a lot of training
The operators need to understand there not the only operators that needs things. Most of the time it takes 30min to find things because it is not in location. Then on top of that I have to put rolls load truck put up finish goods like all this things pull me off the floor
There is alot of language boundaries can't communicate clearly. Not everyone speaks fluent English
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Safety is huge and forth coming
Everyone is really respectful amd nice to each other
The interaction with my coworkers
Gives the opportunity to advance.
we work well with one another
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
HR needs to help employees with work problems.
Pay employees more. Hire good employees. Make people follow the rules
Review from Operations Dept
they needs to start a 5s program
Peoples mentality. They dont want to train, thinking that they are getting fired.
Scanners would save me a lot of time and get me back to the floor faster. Worker coming to work
What did you like most about the interview process?
I like the fact that they tell you you have a opportunity to grow with the company and they made me feel right at home like whose family gave me good vibes.

Wanting to make sure that I was qualified for the position and sincerity in every question.
Getting the job and going to work quickly

Review from Operations Dept
What makes you most happy at work?
The one thing that makes me happy about working for this company is trying to give good quality to the people and get those numbers up so that we can grow and continue to keep the doors open.
My coworkers , my adjuster, and the job itself
Working with my teamate here
Having the opportunity in being part of the solution.
completing. each truck load or unload
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Novolex chronically stole from employees. Leads to distrust between employees and employer. Once trust is lost, it is gone.
We havepushed to retain some people or bring back some people that create toxic encorionments. We end up with accidents and people with experience leaving the company. My team is terrific now but the battle to remove a toxic person from my team with years of history resulted with me on medication
Review from Operations Dept
