Vantaggi

A big company, so good on a resume.

Svantaggi

Management reward people who tick off maintenance even though they have no idea how to repair anything or fault find. You can have no understanding of how lifts and escalators work but as long as you fill out the jobs on the phone you will get looked after. A great place to work if you’re an incompetent technician. An awful place to work if you’re honest and good at your job. If your good at your job you will be used and abused until you’re completely burnt out. There is no training or professional development. You get pigeonholed as only being able to do a certain job and if you stay that’s all you will ever do. Management ignore safety incidents raised that could have resulted in damage to equipment and/or customer injury or death. Somehow near miss incidents raised never get acknowledged or discussed at safety committees. Only forgotten about. The sundries repair department is the biggest concern. Sending you to jobs with no parts, asking you to get details on jobs that have already been completed and customer paid for. Asking you to carry out repairs in an unsafe way and asking you to use parts that won’t work because they have ordered the wrong parts.

Vantaggi

120 Hours of PTO per year is nice, *if* you get hired on completely. Working with people of different ethnicity is nice.

Svantaggi

These people LOVE their temp workers and will keep you that way as long as possible. No bonuses, no PTO/Sick time, no benefits. You can be strung along for up up to 3 years before being hired on. Benefits are lackluster at best. Dental especially is a joke. You will NOT get promoted. Lateral movement at best, and if you like stress you can become a team lead/supervisor. Management feels completely disconnected, focused more on their spreadsheets than boots-on-the-ground input from factory workers. Communication between departments and levels of management is almost nonexistent. Yearly bonuses are unfairly weighted to favor upper management with unrealistic expectations for participation. * Overtime/Weekend work not required but an unwritten expectation that WILL negatively impact your reviews and bonus Abysmal raise rates. So many work stoppages due to terrible supplier relationships Major holidays extended, use PTO to fill time or go unpaid. (No help for temps) Things are such a frantic unorganized mess that you can never tell if you are understaffed or overloaded with work volume. Management engagement with employees feels like required lip service more than genuine interest. HR is virtually useless and will defer work back onto the employees Point system for attendance is weighted to pressure employees to be at work even if its dangerous. Staying anonymous because there will be a talking to in the office otherwise. Feeling completely undervalued/replaceable/disrespected.
