Intricon Corp

Anyone who is an engineer or higher are horrible at their jobs! They have no clue to what their job title/duties. They sit in meetings or pawn off duties to their technicians. The management needs to recognize the hard workers there. The company pays too little and requires you to do lots of work plus lots of mandatory overtime! Most of the managers and engineers have little experience on what they’re supposed to do. They can’t manage their own team and when a mistake is made, they point fingers. A lot of good people have left, such as myself, feeling like there’s no room to grow. The company does discriminate and when it is brought to attention, they brush it off! Great job Intricon! I’m glad I left that poorly managed company! The need a whole 360 management turnover as soon as possible because several are leaving soon, also I’m pretty sure the employees will stay with a bribe of pay . 

IntriCon has a very friendly culture and it is easy to work with others. They take good care of their employees and ensures that they are happy. They hold employee picnics, potlucks, massages, and other fun non-work related things to show employee appreciation and care. I especially enjoy that IntriCon encourages employees to volunteer and will hold events during lunch with volunteer opportunities.

There are some really great people here, but like most places, not everyone is easy to work with. I have been very lucky in having a great team but I have also seen some not-so-great team members from afar. 

The hardest thing about working at IntriCon is that there are 3 buildings, so sometimes it's harder to follow up with people/tasks because of that.

Another hard thing about IntriCon is that there may not be a lot of room for advancement - depending on your position. They have employees who have been here for a long time, so until they leave, advancement can be limited.

HR and upper management have gotten lazy throughout the years. All they see are numbers and profits, but don't think about how that came to be; their employees. Employees get little to no raise, no recognition, no room for improvement. Mandatory OT for 6 months when at the beginning of the year, it was promised for only a month. They talk about their core values, "inclusiveness", yet employees are the ones most out of the loop because everything happens behind closed doors in management meetings. Upper management pocket watches and micro manages all departments because they've gotten stingy with their money. Million of dollars in profits, yet nothing is given to the employees. Verbal warnings for clocking in 1 minute early or 1 minute late. This place used to be flexible, use to be fun coming everyday. But after dealing with an incompetent upper management, it's all coming down FAST. 

In manufacturing your typical day is not as much paperwork as it is solving problems on your feet. I learned about the manufacturing process of medical devices. Management was great. I learned a lot from my managers and they're very approachable people. The culture is awesome. It is a slightly older company, a lot of baby boomers, but they're awesome, fun people. As usual, there are a few bad apples, but it's the best office group I've ever worked with. The hardest part is that since some of the engineers are older, they might not be as open to every idea that deals with new tech, but overall I thought they were reasonable. The part of the job were the people, I really miss a lot of them.

While work is good, the management isn't so great. Managers and planners don't talk to each other about work orders. There's no communication between them at all. It gets confusing when they're not on the same page, otherwise everything is fine when everything run smoothly. Supervisor are friendly and always helping you when you need it. Workers are always happy to help you when you need it. Easy going job not too complicated and willing to train people to operate machines.

This company treats their employees well. The managers are very friendly and often come to check how everyone is doing. They are flexible with hours and let you make up any missed days which is really nice. The people are friendly. They pay pretty well compared to other companies doing the same work, the pay as a temp is about as much as a permanent employee at another company. Overall a nice company.

Good learning experience of automation and plastic injection molding presses. Some assembly work experience also. Good relationship with the company in the beginning. Poor management and leadership from supervisors later on with new staff. Micromanaging so much that it drove long time employees out. Leaders/supervisors can be bias towards employees. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people and the work environment

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
New Upper management changing everything. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It is family friendly and easy to start with.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Doing your 8 hours and not having to stress about anything. Until new Management.

Utter chaos with a profound lack of direction. Old leadership is gone, good riddance. Generational change failed miserably, new hires in executive leadership, especially in HR, were complete failures but the “pretend” regime is gone now, including HR. It will be a while but with some good leadership that is honest maybe things will get better.  

Depend on the location, people are behaving to you. One location has really nice communication, no one care your title  and talk with respect to everybody.2 location depend on your tittle and people talk with you with respect or not.
