DMC Power

What is the best part of working at the company?
Good hours that’s it. It’s a great place to start out of high school but if you have any skills you don’t get awarded for them at all. I came to work there and I had 20 plus years of welding degree and 20 years of a senior machinist 3 and they classified me as a general labor so they wouldn’t have to pay me more money!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part is when your more qualified than 90% of the people that work there and people come in and gets higher positions and wages than you do and lead men just stand get together in groups of 4 and stand around and don’t do anything all day. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Not good to much drama and if your a good worker they just give you more work and just let the others stand around and not say anything to them

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
You don’t get trained at all and nothing is organization at all.

DMC Power focuses on electrical connectors and the tooling that go along with them. They are able to make custom connectors for utilities companies and in a time crunch. I learned what goes on in a grounding substation and parts needed to make it work successfully. Some project involved a lot of time consuming steps and without techs, a project could drag on longer than desired. Management would want engineers to "expedite" some projects by overlooking steps and documentation. 

Coworkers were very enjoyable to work with and got along just fine. When it comes to management however, they seem to be very departmentalized and did not seem happy when different department personnel collaborated to complete a project, which to me was difficult to understand why.

Everyone at DMC Power is very nice, helpful and wiling to lend a hand when someone asks for help. 
When I first started reading prints and tacking. Then they had me welding small parts, and soon moved me up to the bigger parts.
They have a high expectancy for quality but co- workers and supervisors encourage you to learn more.
Some of the welds require some skill.  
On big order we usually have welding competition based on how fast and how aesthetically attractive the welds can be. Time always seems to run faster when your welding in there.  

The repetitive welds can take a toll on the body especially the wrist, back and neck.

Great company for those that have no experience but that is all. Get in, get your experience and run away. Welders and CNC machinist dont require experience which is great but compensation is not the best. Management has improved since the changes in late 2014. Easy work with high tolerance in the CNC department(thus the no experience necessary) Co workers and overall culture is not bad, after a while you start feeling comfortable. as long as you re doing work and not standing around its all good. CEO walks in and doesnt even acknowledge your presence, you are just another number, Company is owned by investors so you are just a number to them.

No raise in pay but expect you to get all the work done. You have a few racist Hispanic people. Tool crib attendant is a joke, office people get treated better than shop floor, management always walking around making sure your working, not enough parking, short breaks, no sick time, no vacation time only pto, temporary for a very long time with no insurance, some get treated well than others, people don't know what there doing, some don't do any work at all.

Modifying solid parts and adjusting their route through different machines and processes. Seeing these parts though manufacturing process. Adapt or re-calibrate existing programs to fit existing or new designs.
Culture is very relaxed, to the point that when things are not working or broken no one cares to change anything. Things are done inefficiently and incorrectly. This leads to work needing to be done twice.

This is a good place to learn what you need and get out. Otherwise this place is a dead end. Management doesnt really know what they are doing. Planning is basically non existent. They dont follow any planning principles, they just charge for expediting and push out any other work orders for months. The people are mostly okay,  but they definitely play favorites. If you arent apart of that group, good luck getting anyone to listen to you or have your back. The pay is low, and you dont get raises at all, if you do they are extremely low. Learn what you can and get out. 

working for DMC Power is ok as long as you know what you are doing. If not they would provide training until you can do it on your own.  The Co-workers are friendly and mostly keep to themselves other than asking for information on a specific jobs or for a casual conversation.  The work can get hard when there is a big job to do and it needs to be shipped on the same day.  What I learned at DMC Power is how to weld more better using GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding), and knowing how to be more time manageable.
