So, you have managed to stumble upon an impeding doom as I once did. Best thing to do is to turn away now while you have a chance. When I first started, the job was great, I loved it. As time went on, I grew to hate it, management is the biggest joke, favorites are played especially by two Individuals (won't say any names but they are the two most known in the entire plant). Regardless of what your job is, you get volunteered to do other things, your home life does not matter, you work on their time no matter how long that may be. When you go in they will tell you it's an 8 hour shift, that's as big of a joke as management, some are lucky to get a full 8, some are lucky to get out at a full 8. Shifts bicker and argue like little kids and anything brought up to upper management gets tossed to the side until somehow it becomes their "idea". I have worked through breaks, had  to skip lunch a few times, and still was talked to like a dog in the end. Any type of praise for your work is not happening unless you ask for it and then you're lucky for getting it. It is so bad, the individual we had for HR left unexpectedly without a notice. You're lucky to get a raise because they will do anything to keep the money away. Letting them know you like what you do is a mistake because they will almost immediately take you and put you somewhere you hate. If your sick, show up anyway because a doctor's note doesn't matter, they will use your vacation time for your sick days. Just trust me, look somewhere else.90% of the current employees there are looking for a new job, and that's saying something considering they are under staffed anyway. No matter how hard you work, the pay is the same. As far as bonuses, there are none, we were lucky to get a $15 gift card for Thanksgiving.This place is going down, and I for one, can't wait.

If you need a job and paycheck, they can provide that. Don’t expect management or hr to handle any issues with co-workers being rude. Some people will go out of their way to make your day worse, and it’s accepted as the norm. They can’t afford to fire anyone who acts like this, as long as that person shows up to work, so they get away with it. Management has their favorites that will get away with doing less work or no work at times, while they get on other people and expect them to do more. Pay for different job areas is all hush hush because they don’t want to have to pay everyone a fair wage. Certain areas or even just individuals in areas will make more than others secretly because of favoritism or desperation of trying to keep an employee there.  It all depends how connected you are, not how good a of worker you may be. They constantly will give excuses for not paying more or giving bonuses because of one thing or another, in the same breath talk about record breaking sales and increased business. They pinch pennies when it comes to wages, but won’t bat an eye throwing money out the window for processes that make no sense or rejections that could have been easily avoided. Def not a place you want to be at long term, but a good enough place to be while you find a better job. Which there are a lot more of them out there than this place. 

I really enjoy working at IPC.  I have worked for Fortune 50 companies as well as doing construction on a pay per day crew, so I have experienced many different styles and attitudes.  I feel at IPC the leadership team does their best to take the employee into account.  I am always pleasantly surprised at some consideration they have taken to make our lives easier and more enjoyable.  In an era when companies are cutting costs and amenities for employees anywhere they can, IPC came in and fought for us to maintain our great health benefits at the affordable rates we had. 

IPC promotes from within and is very diligent about posting positions available for advancement. 

 I could go on, but I worry if I am too effusive you might feel I am being duplicitous in my praise.  I can genuinely say in the 25 years since I started earning money doing drywall for a family business and working in multiple fields across several states, IPC is the most genuine, enjoyable place I’ve experienced to date.  With IPC, it really is personal.  


One of the worst places Ive ever worked in my life.I was their almost a year until I got fed up with Managments lies,pettiness, lack of leadership, good ole boy system.  The less they knew coming thru the door, the Plt. Mgr. Would make them a Mgr. The Maintenance Mgr. was not even qualified to be a Tech, much less a Coordinator. Tore up everything they touched, leaving me and my 2nd shift coworker to fix. Lied to our face, finally after working 60 plus hours a week, I got another job and walked out. Then 2 weeks later the Plt. Mgr. left. Highly unqualified individual. He left the Georgetown facility in a mess. Piqua owner and mgr. werent any better. Toyota will end up dropping them so fast it will make their heads spin.No vacation,  cant get it approved.  If you have any experience in a factory, go elsewhere.  Not worth the trouble and waste of time.

started their as a temp moved my way up to full time machine operator which wasnt too bad after working there for about 4 years i moved up in quality where i worked there for about 9 months then they started laying off everyone in higher positions giving them an option to go back to the floor usually on machines no one liked running so its basically dead end no matter how hard you work there's always fair of them either laying you off or getting rid of your position entirely 

One of the most unorganized places I have ever worked for in my life. These people haven't got a clue when it comes to running a company. Management at the Georgetown Ky facility is a joke. Theres a HR person and a Plant Mgr. That's it. The Plt. Mgr. runs the whole show They will do everything they can to keep anyone else from succeeding there. Is all about the buddy system. I work with a bunch of crybabies that haven't a clue about what its like to put ina hard days work. Then they sit and gripe about everyone and everything.No communication there, what so ever. That place will not survive. especially  doing contract work for Toyota.Find a job where people value your talent and people work as a team. Not for a bunch of backbiters, politicians, and lazy people.

What is the best part of working at the company?
There is nothing positive about working here.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management. Being told last minute about overtime. Favoritism.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
People wouldn't mind their own business and would go tattle to the boss, I had FMLA and people thought it was their business to go to HR and talk about me saying that because I did things on the weekend that there was no reason I couldn't work during they week. Some people could do no wrong. They would take some peoples' words as is and not even invest incidents.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
We had a meeting at start of shift stating where we would be for the day. Then go to our work stations.

Worked from 8 till 5 in customer service / planning. I had my own set of customers who I corresponded with daily either by phone, fax, or email. The hardest part of my job was keeping up with all the departments to ensure my customers orders shipped out in a timely manner. I enjoyed my job very much. I liked being able to manage my orders from the time I take the order to the time it shipped out the door. This also allowed me to give accurate updates to my customers by knowing any and all problems in a timely manner. I made several friends in different departments and this made problems that arose easier to deal with.

Management cares about one thing, and it's the money in their pockets. The company shared that it ended last fiscal year with a substantial profit. Yet getting a decent raise or a raise at all is like pulling teeth. Bonuses are non existent if you work on production floor. Favoritism abounds, prepare to watch others sit around all day while you work. Or as they get away with murder.  Second and third shift are the scapegoat first does no wrong. Many seem to speculate that the company won't be around much longer. If you have restrictions, or fmal be prepared to be hassled about using your entitled benefits. Disorganization and lack of communication and upkeep is central t theo companies overall business plan.

A terrible place to work. No job security anymore even if you are a good worker and care about doing a good job. The new CEO is running the place into the ground. There are people getting paid to stand around and do nothing while the people that are hard workers or have been there for years are getting screwed. There is a lot of favoritism within the company. If you are in with upper management even though your not a good worker your job is safe. You can be removed from a position based on which shift you work rather than job performance or if you’ve been in that position longer than somebody else with the same position. If you don’t care about the work you do and just need a paycheck this place is for you.
