senior tax accountant

machine operator

Conbraco Industries Inc.

A typical day at work can consist of several rounds through the plant, inspecting machining and manufacturing processes and the operators that run them for adherence to company blueprints and specifications. Instruments used can vary from digital calipers to optical comparators and Starrett CMM work. Co-workers are willing and capable to assist in all aspects of their jobs and readily answer any questions as to production expectations and work related issues. Management of late has taken something of a down turn as new supervisors have been introduced that lack positive employee managerial skills and basic understandings of morale and decency in the workplace. Hardest part of the job is occasionally being the only QA technician in charge of three floors and over thirty machines for a twelve hour period. Most enjoyable part is easily enough the job itself. Quality Assurance is an interesting field for me and I thoroughly enjoy my work in the area.

Was a great place to work at one time. The company that bought them out went through and got rid of most of the decent managers and replaced them with incompetent “yes men” about 1.5-2 years ago. The current maintenance manager has run off quite a few guys that had 15+ years invested in the company and were planning on retiring from there. They pretty much throw the employee handbook out the window and change their rules and policies whenever it suits them without updating the handbook afterwards. The hourly employees are awesome though pretty much like a big family. 

Would NOT recommend this employer. Office environment that was very unprofessional. Management was disorganized and seemed like no one was on the same page. Was terminated for attendance whilst using vacation time for the absenteeism. They make up the rules as they go. Asking personal questions to find out about your absences. Like what doctor are you going to and where? Very strange environment.Everyone at this company hates the job. Office environment where everyone talks about you.Former new co worker had same experience. Very unprofessional and distasteful. Only pro was the location. Happy to have moved on from that environment.

Management listen to all the negative things other floor associates have to say about the other. Too many bosses that are not bosses. Easy jobs to complete.
Not enough training for some associates to complete a promotion job.
Oil is bad for your skin but the plant is in a good environment.  Nice company cookouts and free giveaways doing the holidays. 3 shift is the best shift to work  if you are not a peoples person who likes everyone in your business.
The HR assistant is not friendly or helpful. She does all she can to make your job hard and she looks for any little thing to get you fired. She is not good for the company at all.

Management, both departmental and upper, show favoritism.  Sides were often taken in situations between particular employees. Some employees were petty and childish at times.  Promises made and not kept on advancements, job responsibilities and pay increases. I loved the work but disliked some of people that I dealt with daily.  Dedication, loyalty and seniority meant something when I first started work there but it means nothing now since the company was sold to an out of country corporation.

I feel it could be a better environment to work in if they would help there workers out meaning management can help by getting more help in the department and not depending on one person to run the entire department when someone is on vacation for a week or two also don’t depend on one person to do multiple jobs but I will say this I make the best of whatever I do so until another opportunity comes my way I’ll be here trying to make a better living for me and my family 

People drop like flies and become literally sick working at this company, but it seems like the only department that is unhappy is customer service. The pay is just enough to get by but everyone in a non-high position are underpaid for the work you put in. Everyone in customer service is literally doing a job for 5-6 people. Not only that, when someone leaves, there is no one replacing that person. Their work is just dumped on an existing person.

I clock in at 6:00am, then I'm told which job I'll be working today. Either Vibratory, Racking, or Impregnation machine. I've learned it's a team effort, and support the other employee's by helping them finish their work if I'm finished ahead of time. Co-workers looking out for one another. Lending a helping hand or giving advice. I can't think of the hardest part, just be on time and do the best. The most enjoyable part is knowing you have something to do in the morning. That you've been productive.

The management is terrible, the higher ups don’t let your smaller managers do their job (such as supervisors) have been through 2 plant managers in the year I’ve been here, 2 department managers and 2 supervisors, the moral is extremely low everybody hates their job, you’re underpaid and overworked, nobody here cares about you as an employee or just a human being in general, i would recommend you avoid this place at all cost, low pay,  no raises, terrible benefits, even worst management. Stay away
