90% work force spanish speaking. management has there favorites. if you show great work ethic they expect it while others a standing talking and you to do their job. if your put incharge of a project dont tell the ladies that have been there several years to do something even though your supposed to  because they will take you to HR for being bossy and you will get a refferal. all around horrible place to work. hours are supposed to be 7-3:30 but you will always be working 6_4:30+ and most of the time it will be a last minute hey we have to get everything out so we cant leave till its all done at 6,7,8 at night. hated that place. HR asked me why i might be having issues running a lead situation and my response was that i dont realy have any athority and a language barrier. their response was said rudely "this is our work enviroment if you dont like it either learn spanish or learn to deal with it!" my advise DO NOT work there and save youself the head ache and body ache of being over worked. and i used to to construction.....

What is the best part of working at the company?
Best part about working at the company was that it was always fun, never felt like work. I enjoyed doing my job and learning a new skill.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part about working for the company was when I had to repair the product.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is great, friendly,team community kind of place that encourages and supports the employees.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day at the company would be clocking in , going to the meeting if there is one , check the job list to see where or what to start working on. Pull the blueprints. Parts, set up the welding table to weld. If needed get a grinder and help out with grinding.

When hired was told that hours would be from 7-3:30 with some Saturdays working. The majority of the time we are working until 5pm and almost every Saturday averaging 50-62 hours a week. This leaves no family life as I have a husband and two children. By the time I get home, Im too tired to do anything else. The place is very hot, no training is provided you have to learn as you go. There is lack of communication from team leader. Favoritism is a big issue. The issue that gets me the most is, all of the "higher management" walk around and do nothing to help out. They stay in their ac office and when its short staff they just walk the floors and never offer a hand. ALL of them are white. The supervisor is black but she has to help out when we are behind. It would be a very good company to work for if more training was done.

Chatsworth Products was a very fun place to work and nothing was really hard about the job. Typical day was the shipping and receiving dept. waiting on parts from production. I learned how to deal with the truck drivers that came to the warehouse on a daily basis and befriended most of them. My supervisor was a very learned and experienced individual and helped me out a lot while on the job. My co workers were enjoyable to work with and made the day go by fast. Upper management never really ventured downstairs unless we had a dedicated truck of products that didn't leave on time. No part of the job was very hard, except for being kept past temp time and then being let go. The most enjoyable part of the job was the people that I worked with that made the day fun.

CPI is an employee owned corporation. The work days go by very quickly. I often find that there are not enough hours to accomplish all I wish to do. The company is always willing to support me in continuing education and provides me with the time to do it. My mid level managers have supported me very well but the further up you go, the less they seem to understand the challenges of my job. The people I work with are all easy to get along with and willing to talk things out. The hardest part of my job is that I wear too many hats and the department I am in is way too lean. The best part of my job is that I get to provide solutions to a wide variety of problems and never get bored with my work.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Never a loss for work. Always hours to rely on. The company takes care of their employees. Both present and past. Along with 401k, paid vacations as well as occasional perks such as profit share, its safe to say they appreciate those who have commited time with the company. After 6 yrs from parting ways, they fulfilled their end in regards to ESOP. To this day, I'm grateful for working with them at some point.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Bitter sweet. Many hours to expect.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Friendly and very busy

What is the best part of working at the company?
Just the experience I learned.  It's an employee owned company but felt it wasn't.  Great entry level manufacturing job 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with employees hired...no sense of professionalism 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's diverse which is great. But very immature high school mentality as in behavior 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Just get the job done plus 100 and 10 percent more

After receiving job orders I check inventory, prioritize the orders and organize the days work. Work consists of welding, inspecting, finish sanding, etc. I've learned how to inventory, collaborate with engineers, work as a leader in a teamwork environment. My coworkers are hard working and commit themselves to "Delighting the Customer". The hardest part of the job is being limited in completing job orders due to lack of inventory. I enjoy finishing a day with job orders out the door and money in the bank.

Its an employee owned company so all employees get to know how the company runs and its financial situations. Management interacts with all employees, my co workers are easy to get along with which makes the day/ night go by faster. the hardest part about my job would be trouble shooting certain programs that are ran on the machine I run. The most enjoyable part of the job would be the machine I run its called the Vipros 357 its a CNC Punch Press machine that punches holes, rectangles, and squares in every direction.
