Bruno Independent Living Aids

Good job for a kid fresh out of high school, if you're looking for advancement and go somewhere else unless your a sexy female with a nice chest. Do not get injured on the job because accidents don't just happen, its always your fault even if you warn your supervisor it's going to happen someday. Then after injury you've got a Target on your back if they don't fire you they will make sure one way or another you are no longer employed by them and they will deny any unemployment benefits. The human resources department has to be the worst of all they will look you in the eye smile and pretend to be your friend while at the same time they are sticking a knife deep in your back. The whole company is a joke the quality of work is the worst I would never in my life allow a family member to use their products after what I experienced during my employment with Bruno independent living aids. If you value your quality of workmanship do not work there if you want to work like a slave then maybe this is the job for you they will consistently work you harder and harder every time you complete your daily tasks they will automatically expect more from you the following day. So if you prefer to work for a place that believes in quantity over quality then maybe this is the fit for you. They consider themselves a world-class company but as far as the employees are concerned they fall way short. The quarterly bonuses also known as profit sharing or a complete joke unless you're a family member. You make the company more and more money every year and they give you less and less. Then to top that off the way they showed their appreciation for employees that have worked for them for a long period of time if they put a cap on your salary and tell you you can no longer make any more money working for us but you can work harder or you can find yourself a new job great way to treat an employee who's been with you 15 plus years.

There is a reason they are giving all these benefits to new hires, to lure you in.  Favorites are played here if you are a pretty girl or the bosses favorite the entire world will be yours. If you work hard and try everyday and aren't one of those the best you will get is a 3percent raise.  Team leaders sit in the office laughing and talking while on their phones while you are out on the floor waist deep in work. If you get hurt they essentially bully you until you leave and find every reason to deny it happened at work which brings me to my next point. There is almost no chance of being hurt outside of work because you get almost no time off. If I could have rated this jobs work/life balance 0 I would. Mandatory overtime never ends because of poor management (who work 9-5 in the offices while we slave away ALL day and Saturdays) and people (primarly the older gentlemen on first shift) slacking and getting away with it.  Half of my good talented coworkers have quit in the time I have been there and nearly EVERYONE else is talking about getting a new job / actively searching and interviewing. I also have personally seen and heard of human resources lying to people's faces. Their voices echo in my head "we work some mandatory 9 hour days and voluntary Saturdays here when we get super busy" while I'm finishing my 5th mandatory 10 hour shift on Friday night before having to get up immediately the next day for a mandatory Saturday. Lies, disappointment, false promises , and betrayal all disguised with a fake plastered on grin and "world class" posters

What is the best part of working at the company?
Honestly the benefits, and that’s the only reason 90% of the people stay here. Pay isn’t competitive at all, they need at least a $5 raise for assembler workers to make it worth it. Bonuses are alright, will soon be less and less due to tariffs….., they say they want to help people grow but in reality they are all talk and no show, it was worse when I started and has gotten every so slightly better. It’s the incompetence and incompliancy of the middle managers and captains that mess everything up 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Every day. Unrealistic production goals while using outdated tools, and production steps , half the time you ask for something it goes on def ears, you’ll have to ask multiple times for anything to get done

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment with other workers on the lines can vary, there are a lot of clicks and  judgy people. You’ll either fit in or your line will be against you. This is because there is no moral building, team leads and captains make no effort to build moral.

Managers are horrible at their job. HR is a joke. Speak about Jesus and your called up to HR. That is unless your using His name as a swear word (You can do that all you want.) Managers can swear at you without any consequences. If you say a writeup is b.s. you get fired. Some supervisors are always on their personal phones texting and watching youtube in their A/c office. If you don't tell them your going to the bathroom they will come into bathroom asking if you're in here if gone from booth for more than 2 minutes. That is unless youre one of their choosen few who can get away with anything. Like making weapons, shooting ball bearings at people, taking a book into bathroom for 30-45 minutes, cleaning up 45 minutes early then playing on cellphone for last 15-20 minutes with shoes and coat on  (yes I'm talking about you in the towers.) Oh I forgot to mention you can't trust 80% of the people here. A lot of kids who will backstab you in a heartbeat. But if you show up everyday the managers will reward you with a blind eye to all your rule infractions (basically allowing you to get away with anything)

This place is worsethan high school.  People are rude and talk behind people's backs.  There is so much gossip and so many cliques.  People only work at a pace where they can get their goals number for the day because heaven forbid you do more than what is asked because then more will be expected.  They can't keep supervisors and there is no moving up in the company unless you're friends or related.  Training is nearly noon distantdue to laziness of the trainers as well as lack of patience.  Management is a joke and there is no holding anyone accountable for anything.  This place is a joke.  First place I ever worked at where I enjoyed the job but couldn't stand any of the people I worked with due to attitude and childish behavior.

This is the worst job I have ever worked in my entire life. False promises are made consistently. The HR representatives are clueless and only want to protect management. There is little to no training on the jobs that are expected to be completed, you are left a majority of the time figuring everything out by yourself. Don’t bother asking for help, it’s too much of an inconvenience for management to assist you. You are treated as nothing but a number. Constant drama flows throughout the workplace. Unrealistic rates are expected. The raises are awful. Each day you work at this company will make your life increasingly more miserable.

I worked for Bruno for two years in assembly as a summer helper. Overtime when it's busy is mandatory, and the managers were either lazy or too caught up in the number of meetings to be useful. I became full time in the office, and that was terrible. Most of management has been with the company since it began and don't care enough to work hard, instead of getting fired they just get moved around. Huge number of broken promises and bare-faced lies. On top of that, everyone is either related to the Brunos  or are family friends, and they all live in the same community so if you're an outsider good luck. There are a handful of coworkers I really enjoyed working with and Bruno offers great benefits, but overall I hated this job.

A typical day at Bruno, involves me leading a small team of colleagues in completion of our assigned daily tasks. I manage and work alongside my team. Problem do arise quite often, and I am called upon to help solve them. I love my co-workers. But I can do without the individuals in management. They hold everyone to different standards, specifically double standards. The hardest part of the job is dealing with management when their expectations are set too high. The most enjoyable part of the day is working alongside my colleagues and assisting them in making sure we complete the job, at the highest quality possible.

Worked there for almost 2 years before getting fired. The communication of this place is TERRIBLE. They take weeks to get back to you with an answer to a question, they don't talk to you about issues. They just give you written warnings. Then call you before your shift starts to let you know youre no longer needed. Even though they didn't at all tell me what I did wrong. 

You'll be operating a grinder about 95% of the time and get covered in grind dust all day.  They don't operate under actual structural welding procedures. 

Coworkers are great I loved working with the people I was with. The negative side well there’s quite a lot. Mandatory Saturday’s forever and ever. Don’t expect anything more than one Saturday a month off. Work/life balance is horrible. Lots of favorites played and being treated fairly forget it. 
Compensation is horrible. For a 2 year associate degree being certified in MIG welding and Tig welding you will get 17-18 $ at most. They will low ball you make tons of promises and then stab you in the back and blind side you with the real honest truth about there work ethics and there work hours.
