Vantaggi
I have been working at the Amcor Columbus site for some time now, and I must say, it has gone from a terrible, abusive, employee-hating environment to a nice place to work that I hope to work at until retirement. They recently ditched a miserable plant manager and brought back a good one that actually treats the employees with respect, unlike the previous manager who would say things like “do as I stay, or you can go live on the streets with no income and your family can starve.” We would be making safety recommendations to him or process improvement recommendations but would get retaliated against and screamed at so no one spoke up about anything for fear of getting fired, regardless if our life was at risk due to a safety hazard.
I must say though that the place has turned around and has been great since corporate brought back the friendly plant manager and got rid of the arrogant bully manager. With that, I plan to work here as long as they keep the people-friendly plant manager. Not once has he told us our families can starve like the other guy or that product output is more important than employee safety. He actually cares which is great.
Svantaggi
It is very hot in the building. It would be amazing if there would be some better air conditioning.
