Appreciation goes a long way! - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso CBW Automation

Very cool stuff to work with, cutting edge. Lots of room for creativity. Some room for advancement. Company is very good at promoting within. Not a lot of micro management. You're not a number with this company, everyone plays a key role. Lots of really good people work here!

Travel is required and can sometimes be lengthy. You are in charge of your project and are expected to stay on top of all tasks and see your project all of the way through.

The only thing that made it worthwhile showing up everyday was some of the people I worked with.

Very poor work-life balance. There is a lot of favoritism in certain departments. There are also some departments where you can't even get a pat on the back if you do a good job, let alone a raise. Most people work 50 Plus hours in assembly, because it is mandatory. Fab department is overworked and underappreciated, and they won't hesitate to get rid of you for the slightest reason. They can't keep an HR person in house for more than a few months, and they go running. No 401K match, and you're changing benefits carriers yearly. There are some service personnel I wouldn't trust any farther than I could throw them. Training is minimal if any, learn on the Fly, but don't fail or you could be gone tomorrow. Middle management is nothing but "yes men" that won't back up they're people. My recommendation, if you get a job there, don't stop looking for something better. It won't be hard to find.
