DIAMOND PLASTICS CORPORATION

I have worked many hard-working, time-consuming jobs, and this was one of the worst places I have ever worked, period.
The primary reason for the toxic environment was the pattern of excessive and hyper-critical oversight from my direct manager. This was nothing less than Disruptive Micromanagement.
Every single thing I attempted to do was deemed "wrong" in the manager’s eyes, regardless of the final outcome or result. This created a work environment where I constantly felt devalued and judged. It became physically and mentally draining—I felt like a zombie just showing up. The constant negative feedback and scrutiny actively prevented me from focusing on my core duties and made it impossible to work efficiently.
It was no surprise when I learned from everyone around me that it was widely known to be a bad place to work. My decision to quit was an easy one, and I have since secured a way better paying job with a respectful team.
Do not recommend. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

I was promised 2 weeks vacation off the bat as Diamond Plastics perk for new hire, needless to say, did not receive! Management was terrible, yard foreman did not train! Myself (who was also new) and another employee of 21 years had to train the new hire! Also, the point deductions are absolutely the most stupid policy I have ever had! If you used sick time, you had a point deducted so the company uses punishment for if you are ill! They were not flexible at all! I have a son with severe asthma and would need to respond to him but the company did not care about the employee nor his/her family! I would recommend not working there, and I know I will NEVER reapply, especially with point deductions and no flexibility! 

I enjoyed working at Diamond Plastics.  I believe the work life balance there depends on whatever position you have, and department you work for.  The pay was fair for the workload, and the benefit package highly competitive.  My position never offered much room for change or advancement, though I enjoyed it anyway most of the time.  There's not a manager I didn't communicate or work well with, even the jerks, or ones others complain about.  There's a teamwork culture, that sometimes lacked personal accountability.  Good company.  Great experience.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The pay and that was all. The leads are lazy and do nothing more than run there mouths. A, crews lead in particular.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Knowing that they can and they do make up any excuse to shift any blame towards you a new hire.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
There is no culture. The work environment is hostel and it has nothing to do with yelling some shift leads will activity antagonist the new hires. Like "A crews" shift lead.

Management is very incompetent, they try to act like they know it all but wing it on almost every job task therefore causing more work than needed. The Maintenance manager is a very insecure man and has a short temper. He tries to control you and change who you are instead assisting you in what you need for completing jobs. I've seen over 30 employees come and go in less than 6 months and Management doesn't realize that they are the problem. Overall it's a terrible culture and is not a career based facility currently 

Diamond has taken care of me and my family for close to 4 years now there’s not many jobs around offering the same pay and benefits it’s a unique job and requires hard work that pays off well management makes you feel good about the hard work you do accomplish being they all started as line operators them selves and understand just how tough it can be some days there’s a lot of good people with many years of experience that want nothing more then to pass it down to the ones that care and plan on putting in effort to take care of the company in the same way it takes care of them 

They say "$#!t rolls downhill" in the plumbing industry and it's no different for infrastructurual manufacturing. You can guarantee if the top dog is upset, you're going to be by the end of the day.

Between absolutely disgusting management practices and lack of communication amidst literally any department this might possibly be one of the most toxic workplace cultures in history.  

Promotion? Lol, no. There is approximately a 0% chance of career growth, at least within the Grand Island facility. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The money is nice and they always offer more





What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
All the hours that are available 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They Cook out on the grill and show love to the employees 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Every day is stress less and money in the bank

It has great pay. Wonderful overtime pay. Great people working behind the front desk and a good company leader that is very fair.Going through a tremendously exciting time of growth and transformation. Great leadership, a caring and supporting community of co-workers, and a great product. Complete flexibility about where and how you work as long as you deliver. We do walk the talk--we're a Certified Great Workplace and are getting better every year.

Work day is essentially built around streamlining production.. normal for a plant. Projects and improvements are moving forward however management shows no appreciation for employees breaking their backs to get the job done in a timely manner ... Micro management at its worst. I shouldn't have to watch my back at work period for anything other than safety..
