IMPERIAL INDUSTRIES

The company does surprisingly well in spite of themselves. Every worker, manager, and engineer has vastly different opinions and understanding (if any) of the jobs and tasks being done. Not a day goes by without multiple mistakes being made, over and over again by the same people. The pay scale is incredibly small and backwards. Having more job skill and knowledge is detrimental, as you will be making a comparable amout of money to everyone else, but tasked with substantially more difficult and advanced work. They will remove multiple employee benefits without warning, give pathetically low pay raises (if any), and constantly demand higher standards and added responsibilities, without actually enforcing anything to anyone who wants to disregard procedures or best practices. This job is ideal for someone who can show up every day on time, do the bare minimum, not understand how to do their job after 10 years, constantly make massive mistakes, and is satisfied with having little to no advancement in pay. 

You are just a nuber, they don't care abut you or your family. It is a hostile work environment, it's like everyday you're at war with management and some coworkers who are buddy biddy with management. They play favoritism a lot, if you only been there a fee years they get all upset if you're caught talking go 15 seconds and tell you that you talk too much, while at the same time if you been there 20 years not only can you talk for 7-8 AM and 45 minutes after each break you can sit down in a chair while talking, of you can make it 20 years. A company that brags about making multiple million dollars a month but then smaller family oriented companies offer better benefits. Most people here welding never had the proper education and imperial doesn't follow a specific welding code book or procedure so you could be a decent weer and make less money than someone that lays garbage and welds don't matterm at this company

Working at Imperial was a great working experience for me.  A typical day was to work your full potential of the job responsibilities with having respect for others. I learned how to use other computer programs, factory environment mentality and how to enjoy my job duties.  Most management positions were respected as well as respectful to their employees.  The physical environment could have better ventilated due to working with steel, aluminum and other products which created fine powder dust which came in to our office area.  The hardest part of the job was getting all the work completed in one day.  I loved my job duties at Imperial, it was a good fit for me.

Multi -cultural very helpful coworkers I was one of the helpful coworkers but it was great teamwork.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day was at times fun and at stressful but nevertheless the job was done .

Pros of the job: Getting experience in something I'm interested in, challenging work makes the day go fast.

Cons of the job: Getting experience, but using old design software / not forward thinking at all.  Management will promise things to you and not follow through at all.  Fairly suppressive environment.  Management doesn't care to clean up messy processes because we are "too busy".  High turnover because of things mentioned above.  Under paid for the complexity and responsibilities of the job.  Consistent overtime because we are "too busy".  

my typical day started with price changes and cleaning then i would put out my order and go through my back stock .I would stock the shelves and cleanand make sure all was in order.then i would order new stock for the following week,i would spend every day talking with management ,customers and employees makeing sure the store was stocked and everyone got what they wanted to make the customer happy. I did seasonal and displays i made sure 4 market baskets had everything they needed.

Come in daily meeting get to work,management is not the greatest and sometimes overlook how u feel and where u wanna go with your career they just see what is good for company,  loud work plase and dirty. Hardest part of job the dirt and carrying the hoses and being under the helmet most enjoyable your pay check and your time off

Work was always dirty, and full of risks. I worked there 3 1/2 years and ended up in the Emergency Room 4 times. I learned a lot about welding setup and processes. A lot of the people there were difficult to get along with including the management. I didn't really enjoy this job all that much. I got fired for management expecting to much of me.

Managers don’t care about you, only about money and themselves. Don’t trust HR, it was better 4 years ago, benefits is meh. The pay is pretty decent depending on what you’re doing. Co-workers are pretty awesome depending on the shift and area.
