BTD Manufacturing

They give their customers unreasonable shipping expectations and guess who has to find a way to come through? The employees on the floor. They will work you as much as possible and what you have going in your life doesnt matter to them. And if you dont do what they say like working every weekend then you are frowned upon and somewhat shunned and will end up in the office talking to a supervisor. You can bend over backwards for them over and over but as soon as you dont they will find s way to fire you. The people who should get promoted dont yet someone who knows nothing coming from a different department does and is your lead or your boss only because they're a "yes" man. And forget about the robot department cause the lead probably supervisor now is extremely hard to work for to say the least!! But if you already know the right people in thr company as did he you'll go far but if you dont yougo nowhere

What is the best part of working at the company?
Just learning different positions like how to drive all the different kind of forklifts learning different machine operating skills, working the paint department and welding and more 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Meeting deadlines and having issues with certain machines that need to be troubleshooted so we can stay on schedule

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fast pace but majority of everyone that work there was nice and helpful

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Show up for work clock in head to my station. Get a briefing from the shift before me and start working. Take a 15 minute break, then a lunch, then another 15 minutes and clock out and go home

When I first started it was a dream job. But over time the company has slowly been taking away the perks of the position. 
Early out friday, Double time instead of overtime, Now overtime is non-existent.
Your future at this company is always in question because the work is inconsistent. 
They tend to micromanage and overstaff.

Pro's Pay is great for an offshift
Cons: Poor leadership communication leaves you anxious about the possibility of layoffs

If they were more transparent in the needs of the company towards production rather than just announcing no more overtime, when overtime has been "as much as you want" for the last two years, I wouldnt be so bothered. 

Shows poor leadership and communication for top leaders in the washington branch of the company

Your plan will change day to day, do not make weekend plans you will be asked to work the weekend and most times asked to go home early on Monday or Tuesday, not do to lack of work but due to poor management and planning.
Accountability is a one way street and the ones making the parts are always wrong, You will be threatened daily with write up for not following processes, yet most processes and control plans are not available or incomplete, again the production operators fault. People that defend others or themselves will be put on jobs with bad rate or rework then face discipline actions for low productivity.

Take up golf or be a yes man if you want to succeed, these seem to be more important than skill, work ethic or talent. 

The learning experience (visual/physical) makes getting a flow with your position pretty easy, a deal of management seems to care almost strictly about safety and productivity. everyone there is nice for the most part and the coworkers that DO work hard makes the day go by easy. The paint line is probably the hardest part of the job, it can be very labor intensive and really hot, fans are also in the building but the heat from the oven is mostly what torches you. At the end i also think the paint shop is one of the more enjoyable parts of the job because of how constantly busy you are sometimes, it serves as a good workout

I have worked at BTD for 6 years as a welder,  i have been promoted  twice at this company, and listen up how to become successful and don't make the mistakes i did. If your going to work in any Department production ((BEWARE)) it is a very stressful  job it's all about your production rate  of the day, this is how you get your raises. You can NOT be a lazy worker here. Things have changed within the last year at BTD due NEW upper management.  Always communicate with your lead and supervisor THATS IT. DO NOT MAKE FRIENDS at this place. This is the mistake I have made, just keep it to yourself and ull be fine.



HORRIBLE PLACE TO WORK!!! You are not allowed to talk to anyone outside the walls of that building.  If you have an issue you have no recourse there is no back up for the employee - HR if that's what you call it is a nightmare and perhaps bipolar most of the time.  The "management" is constantly telling you that you will be out the door - threats with write ups - however, they do nothing to get you the required training to get you where you need to be!  Worst company I have ever worked for as far as management or lack there of.  This place is just a bunch of immature people that is ran like a circus!

I have worked in the warehouse on 3 different shifts during my first 3 1/2 years there. I recently was re-hired after having been gone 11 years out of state. I was excited to have an opportunity to work there again and it worked out perfectly. My previous job was the most toxic workplace I have ever encountered and it is refreshing to be back with a quality company.  If you are a good employee and have integrity as a person, I think you will fit in great. I am very happy to be back.  

This is a great company to work for in that the work is enjoyable and day to day life is rewarding. I enjoy my managers as people outside of work, but this company is terribly mismanaged. Middle management seem to have title changes quarterly in a never ending attempt to manage errors out of the workforce. This would be an honorable task; however they take this approach without giving proper training to the staff. I have faith this company will move through trying times and find the right people in management that will properly utilize and pay their staff as deserved. Until that time I feel that it would be unwise not to search elsewhere.

I worked there for 3 years, after that they disposed me like a piece of garbaje. Managment is horrible . HR not helpfull at all people from headquarters helpless, they have preferences i worked my self off and yet they got rid off me saying it was because of covid 19 and is all 
lies they kept most of slacker dudes there that were never pushed to work their self off as they did with hispanics. Specially in paint department. Think about it before you go there. If you have a better chance somewhere else go for it, but this place is not worth the time to waste it there.
