Great leadership across rhe board
When it comes to the people side, it's great! good connections good work environment.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Listen to employees and care
Maintenance Supervisor at IDF needs to be looked into. We have tried to talk to our maintenance manager and nothing has come of it. It's got to the point people will start walking out. Please look into this.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
401kis good for what it is
The profit sharing is the best part of the compensation package.
The profit sharing is the best part of the compensation package.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
For starters, not being lied to every chance upper management is given. I was moved to a leadership position, with little to no training, and never received SAP access, a significant pay increase, and having to fight for badge access to get to the places in the plant, like the QC office.
Salary is not of market rate. Learned that other company is paying for the same role at 40% more that what I'm being paid now. My manager is not very keen in terms of my career learning and progression.
What are some of the best things about your team?
On night shift, we have a great team spirit. We all try to help each other and we look out for one another.
I enjoy working with almost all of my co-workers. We have a great maintenance team at IDF. The only flaw is the manager.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Critical thinking and common sense seem to be lacking in ALL departments. Just today (4/27/2022), I was berated for some clerical mistake that someone else made in the finishing details of a process order because it was a process order I worked on, all competed on my end, just not finances end.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

What did you like most about the interview process?
Being given a case study to demonstrate
I liked that they were one on one interviews.
What I liked most about the interview process was recieving the job.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
I was interviewed by a gentleman who outright refused to have me work in his specific area in the plant because he felt I was a "better fit for a more manual labouring process" at the facility, to be directed to the dry blending section of Symrise.
What makes you most happy at work?
Benefits, interacting with some key stakeholders, generating reports.
My fellow co workers in the maintenance shop, the production workers on the floor, and the good product we as a company put out to the customer
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The maintenance supervisor and manager at IDF in Monett Missouri need replaced. They do not respect other people and will only look after their own tails.
What do you like best about your company?
Entrepreneurial spirit! Flexible working environment.
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Clearer advancement opportunities.
