Challenging and never boring job duties. If one project completed, always 10 more ready to be tackled. This offered incentive to get better and faster at all functions of job. In my position, I was always given other department work when someone else did not want to do projects. Learned that management poorly performed in this facility and could have done a much better, more cost efficient and much more profitable job than what was observed during my time there. Learned that this company management was accustomed to make scrap rather than identify what the root cause was for scrap and correct it. Also, learned that most women's wages were not reflective of amount of skill and effort of male employees in comparison to management wages and gratuities received. Learned that management was also biased towards male workers with higher wages, regardless of skill and effort applied in their position and they also promoted heavy drinking after work socialization. Learned that job duties were not clearly defined for women and continuously changed/increased for women's positions. Men's jobs were more clearly called out for what was expected of them. No women or other minorities in management or other male-dominated jobs. Wages also not conducive to normal and sustainable living.
Most enjoyable part of job was the challenge to get it all done quickly and efficiently, with a variety of duties performed each day.
The hardest part of the job was dealing with the short-sighted demands of management with no open communication which unfortunately often resulted in poor production, higher scrap costs and lower profitability.

Very nice place to work. I enjoyed the people and my supervisor was a really nice person, professional. I left because of the travel time and being in the snow belt it was sometimes very difficult to get to work...although I never missed a day or was late. Because of this, having to leave sometimes 1-1/2 hours early to ensure I wasn't late for work, made for extremely long days as we had to work 10 hour days. So on average, with my drive time, work.days were usually at least 13 hours with drive time. If the pay has been better I would have stayed but moved on to find work closer to home with shorter commute time.

You need to be very productive in every quarter and if you start slipping one month, you get scolded like a kid. The managers don't care if you can find a better way to do things. You NEED to do it as they say even if it's super ineffective and anti productive. They don't take many suggestions at all but you do get a tiny bonus if you get one accepted... Also, they've done 4 lay offs this year alone and cut 3/4 of the employees. They did not close during vivid because they "make turbine engine parts" but legit the only things we made were for airplane engines and no one wore masks except the CEO. 

Do not work here, it sucks. They treat employees bad. Pay is decent, but you dont increase in pay like you should. Poor management, they want parts and they want them now no matter the condition. If you don't hit a certain percentage you're scolded. You get no PTO until 3 years of being there. The only PTO you will receive is one week when you first start but they choose the week you take it. You can accrue PTO as long as your attendance is perfect for 3 months, no clicking out early or being late by even a second or that personal day is taken from you. They do not have sick leave so make sure you have a doctor on hand that will give you excuses when needed. 

If you don’t know a higher up you aren’t going to go anywhere. It’s like any other place for the most part though. They do a weird thing with vacation. Black out days around the holidays. Only so many people get approved. If you don’t know someone higher up or get into golfing with them you probably won’t make it very far. As far as moving up within your job. That’s pretty hard. They don’t want to pay anything. When approached about a different job opportunity with better pay they throw a fit about it. They hire body’s, don’t need to be qualified

First and only job I ever loved.  I always felt like what I was doing mattered.  Quality of work was valued higher than speed.  The managers I worked with were respectful polite and positive.  I learned alot about metal work, tack welding, fitting the parts we made and the kick press and kick tack machines.   The health insurance was well worth what I paid for it.  The only down side for me came thanks to the Covid 19 restrictions.   They choked off the business to the point they had to lay off a lot of people including me.

Good place to work. Off-work issues led to my time ending there, but I loved my job and my co-workers. Stay focused, keep your productivity on point, always choose quality over quantity when doing parts. Supervisors and management are approachable and actually listen to you. Perfect attendance gets you a paid day off every two months, and 13 holidays a year.

Loved tack welding and running the robot. Management was good, it was just changing a lot during the time I was there so I was never able to really know whoever was in charge. The other employees were great. Everyone worked hard and kept busy. They were all very helpful. The hardest part was first running the robot on my own, but it got better with time. My favorite part of the job was working with the other employees.

Great work environment,smooth running company with very little issues. Good management for the most part. majority of the workers were good and easy to get along with. Corry Manufacturing is a family oriented place of business which held Christmas parties and family picnics and free give away's to employees at no cost. over all a nice place to work.

I loved working at Corry Manufacturing, especially after I transferred over to press operator. Tonnard had given me an introduction to manufacturing but I learned much more at CMC. I also got to learn and operate presses not available at Tonnard. If it weren't for the economic crisis right now I would still be there.
