You can tell how a company treats its employees by the reviews here online. It is definitely a bad sign when the only thing anyone has to say that's good about the place is that "I like talking to the other employees when having to wait for a Hilo". NO ONE on any of these sites has anything good to say about the PAY, BENEFITS, THE WAY MANAGEMENT TREATS THE EMPLOYEES, ETC.  These are the real important items that pay the bills, pays for food, pays for medical expenses and makes working 12 hours a day/ 7 days a week - bearable. Unless things have changed, last time I checked you could not pay your electric bill by having "nice people to talk with." You can bet that these reviews were written by the bi-polar HR Dept, who does a great job of keeping the mostly non-English speaking employees from getting hired in and hiding the fact. Iroquois does not hire people because "hires" typically get paid more then temps, Iroquois is responsible to pay for health care and Temps are less likely to Unionize. 
Quality is not a high priority at Iroquois either. Welds do not pass the customer requirements, but we are told to run the parts anyways. My welder machine does not work much of the time - like 5 or 6 hours out of each day - but we still are expected to make production quantities. When I try to discuss with my supervisor or plant manager, I'm told that it's none of my business and to go back to my welder and wait. There's really no one in the Quality dept to talk to about the problem. The welding quality department seems like they are all new and like a lot of departments here, they don't seem to know much about welding and don't care about learning or about the issues we bring to their attention.
Upper management, plant manager in Welding on Groesbeck are never seen on the floor and I'm not sure how they can know what's going on out in the shop. 
If you have a family with bills to pay, try and find any other place to work. This is place needs the UAW to step in and stick up for the little guys, because the owners and management at Iroquois are all about making money for themselves and THEIR families - off the sweat and work of people making $9 an hour.

First the pay is not good. I was here for last 3 years and only make $9.50 hour. I have family with 2 kids and I can’t pay for rent, food gas and bills. I work in welding department in warren and we have to work mandatory 55 to sometimes 65 or more hours every week. If you ask for day off or leave early to see appointment, the supervisors say the plant manager says I can’t take it off but I have to anyways. 
My welding machines are always broke down. When I ask for help for someone to come fix it I get yelled at. I am trying to help the company to make enough parts but can’t because it is always down. I did learn about welding and even when it’s running the welds are not ok and they say to keep making and shipping the parts. 
The plant is also very smoky and the company owners do not care about the employees breathing in all the smoke. It is so cold in the winter everyone has to wear there own winter coats because the garage doors are always open. The summer is hot and humid.
So overall it has Low pay, bad working conditions, everyone is in bad moods and always arguing.fighting with each other, and mostly no one cares about the quality because of a bad plant manager and upper manager people and the owners. I do not speak good English, but I am looking for a new  job.

It's a place to work to say the least,dirty,noisy,hard to breathe but managers aren't usually breathing down your neck as long as you're making numbers..technicians have an attitude sometimes especially when the same machines keep malfunctioning, sometimes production is fast paced sometimes slow,each person has a different perspective on how to do a simple job so that can be irritating especially if you're in your flow they'll tell you that's not the way but at the end of the day it's a job to get by until something better comes along.im glad I'm working

Everyday there is a set production we as employee's are suppose to meet at an machine. Sometimes there might not be an machine available at the time, so then we are assigned to pack or repack specific parts in a specific container. Management are usually in the office or on the floor available for needed help. Coworkers are in the area doing their job, friendly towards one another during down time or waiting for Hi-lo. Hardest part of job is meeting proper production if machine is not acting right, the most thing i enjoy about my job are my coworkers.

Management can't be trusted. I quit a good job based on promises made by Iroquois management (actually the VP). I held up my end of the agreement but Iroquois did not hold up their end of it. Supervisors play favorites and will give their friends and relatives the good jobs even when temps have been doing the same job for years. If you don't care about your pay or how you get treated, it's a place for you to work. Besides that there's nothing good to say about Iroquois. People who are considering working there should really rethink their decision and look elsewhere because this is not a good place to work at.

I worked for this company for six years and because the supervisor didnt like me because I stuck up for myself and didnt let him threaten me with my job like he did his other employee, he set me up and said that I lied on a doctors note and even when I proved him wrong they still fired me, I was treated different because I couldnt work there manditory sixty five - seventy hours a week doctors orders only fifty. This company doesnt care about the heath of there employees.
The first four years I worked 65/75 hours a week six and even seven days a week

This place is good if you're looking for a quick paycheck. Most positions are machine operators. The pay is lousy and the only way to get a decent check is working the overtime. They know this so they keep the pay low. Other the other hand the work is steady and they always need extra hands. They attendance goes off a point system and you get 15 points every six months. They also like to give you more and more work without a pay increase. Show up, get your check but don't expect to move up anytime fast.
