A typical day for me would be CNC operation as I was hired and trained for, on top of administration, purchasing supplies for the company, their IFS which in itself was a full time job, shipping and receiving, all for the base pay I started at for the CNC operator position. I got my annual raises but never enough for all of the work I was doing. I learned that to get somewhere in the company you had to kiss butt, work overtime consistently, never have a medical emergency, etc. management is a joke. My supervisor was a complete jerk over half the time. Yelling at me for not understanding something that he himself trained me to do (if you taught me and I don’t understand, it seems like you’re the issue) belittling me In front of my peers because I had to miss a day due to an emergency dental procedure which could have been life threatening (and when HR was told, I feel it was swept under the rug) talking about my coworkers behind their backs, probably talking about me behind my back, and just having a know it all superiority complex mindset.  Workplace culture was something I helped adapt at my branch. Everyone was friendly with everyone and help was always there if needed. My coworkers were a pleasure to work with and I would work with them all again in a heartbeat. The hardest part of the job was the fact that I had over 10 things to do in a day, all important and if I didn’t get them all done I was in trouble but I was overloaded with responsibilities. 
The most enjoyable part of the job was my coworkers, as they were super friendly and checked up on me every day. They were caring and selfless and would help me as much as they were able. I was let go from the company as they relocated and they only gave me a 2 week notice. 

On Friday i experienced heat exhaustion and i was left in a room by my self and told I needed to use my sick time to go home without getting a point, so i told them i will not do that as i was already 8-10 hours into overtime and that I wouldn’t be compensated for my overtime wage  if i use Washington sick leave since it’s for hours that haven’t been worked, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg after 5 months of working there they had still failed to provide me a harness that properly fitted me and was assigned to me you ask questions your met with a attitude and told you just need to listen or that it’s a lead problem I don’t understand how anyone new is ever gonna comfortable ask questions or learn when they are told that they don’t do shut and when you try to learn and ask questions your met with a attitude and criticism that you don’t know, they don’t communicate later days until you are 15 minutes away from being off and they will tell you sometimes you gotta work with no communication which is not fair that the employee is supposed to pick up on managements lack of communication with their crew and they will punish you if you don’t work overtime, they try their best to use as prisoners until they don’t need you anymore or you stand up for yourself. DO NOT AND I MEAN DO NOT WORK HERE 

A typical day at Jensen precast Lockeford ca plant is plain and simple people go to get paid and go home nobody wants or strives for betterment that shows simply by there housekeeping in said plant the management is for a lack of better words Insanely incompetent of leadership abilities . Micromanaging and disregard for the chain of command is a regular , promoting from within is non existent for example I am a well seasoned operator and all around versatile employee fit perfect anywhere and I’ve been attempting to move up to a maintenance position due to the difference in pay is over $10 an hour and I need this rate as I am a seeker of betterment through in and throughout so anyways I have seen 8 individuals be hired into this position and 8 people leave this position. without one time being provided an opportunity to shine myself it’s frustrating and kills the morale there is definitely an I at team Jensen cuz we do not exist we are expendable and this is the voice of numerous employees at Jensen precast and one whom is still employed within 

Answering phone calls, follow up on pending customer issues,
coordinate with both inside and outside sales about pending orders and or issues. Verifying inventory quantities as well as plant location,  scheduling transfer of material for open orders.  Talk to production or the scheduler to verify material availability

It is so important to be honest with the customer.  Regardless of the answer, respect is so valuable and the customer will in most cases understand a delay or an early shipment - depending upon the circumstances.

Management was/is very supportive.  

Co-Workers very easy to work with, team approach was/is very evident.

Hardest part of the job - sometimes not having the right inventory item or quantity to ship to the customer due to vendor delays or production delays

Knowing that I was confident in my job and management supported me.  Leaving at the end of the day with the knowledge that I completed tasks to the satisfaction of both the customer and management,

Great place to work and get the experience to take elsewhere or if you want to bring your (not service dog) to work. No room for growth within the company although they preach about it during your interview process. You can easily get denied a new advanced position or you'll have to wait 10+ years for someone to retire to advance into another department. Myself and others have experienced favoritism from management. PTO takes a while to accumulate. There is a "Holiday Closure" at the end of the year and Jensen does not pay their employees for this closure you have to use your own PTO which takes a while to accumulate for personal vacations or you owe and PTO goes negative.

What is the best part of working at the company?
A lot of the coworkers in the department seemed nice at first, but the after a while you begin to realize how they are not as nice as you originally thought they were.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The Engineering manager didn't even know how to use the program the company used to design their products. Eng. manager relied on others to tell her how good or bad you were as far as performance. She couldn't make her own assessment.


What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Everyone in the department was very quiet and it seemed like everyone was walking on eggshells. There was always a sense of uncertainty.

The hours I was able to work. Nice lunchroom in the corp office.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Certain managers, supervisors, some have a clique, very immature. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Depending on the dept\the environment could be toxic, there was quite a bit of that in several accounting depts.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Work hard, some fun along the way, but the management needed serious manager/supervisor training. They just hire them in and give them a title, then wont listen to employee concerns,  and if you do raise a concern, you are then the target.

A typical day at work is chaotic, so many moving parts and people. But most of the long term people here, make it work and work well together. Some very hard working and kind people, but definite favoritism is apparent. Management all over the board, some long term, have employees and company's best interest at heart. Newer Management there for the paycheck and not for the employees. Corporate not very willing to listen to branch level operations, lots of disconnect there.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The office location and the yard workers were welcoming. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being part of a corporation, there is certain rules and regulations to follow but if there is no open lines of communication or proper training, they are setting up future employees up for failure. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
So friends on location. It can be toxic

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Unstable.  More so when you are running a male dominant office without support. You will get angry customers.

I know I'm an extremely hard worker! I bust my butt every day, even picking up slack from those who either called-in  or didn't want to work. I don't think that the raise or bonus potential is fare or truly based on work performance. People who are in positions of higher management don't seem to really care or see the effort that's put in by our daily laborers. I keep my head down, and just do my job so I can get my hours and go home. Seems like that's the best thing to do to get through each and every day.
