Kingspan Insulated Panels

It took me sometime to write this and really had to give it thought. 

Overall the company had great benefits and good folks, but there are several areas that need improvement. 

Communication needs improvement between departments. I witnessed several occasions where blame is put on folks in order to CYA. Silo'd and CYA mentality does not offer solutions just creates an atmosphere of dread and mistrust Not everyone is on the same page. 

There is also a lack of proper training which impacts an individual contributors ability to bring true value to the organization. Every new employee has a day one and it is up to the Leadership team to ensure that a foundation for success is put in place. This includes putting a training plan in place with someone who has the time to dedicate to that persons growth during the training period, It also included proper feedback at stages from the trainer. Unfortunately this was not my case.

When you work on the production line its hottervthan anywhere else.you never know what time you will get off.they keep adding more stuff for you to do and then they make you work saturday and sunday without a proper notice. Since kingspan has taken over this company things have gotton worse. They plant manager is a horrible person and the top people who run the company do not care about you at all. If you work here you are garanteed to not have a life. The people on the floor you work with are great but everything else is not worth it. And a pay raise forget it havent2 had one in years. But they tryvto work us like dogs. Trust me I've been here 11yrs I want another job but work so much can't even have time to look.So if your life,family,friends mean anything don't apply for this job . you will be unhappy every day.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Many different aspects of the job. Management could improve. And AC would be nice. Overall, it's a great company to work for.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Most stressful part of the job would be making the deadlines for production.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment is pretty chill. It can be repetitive, but the employees help pass the time. Everyone kinda helps everyone when needed. Diverse groups of people. Lot of jokesters. Very comfortable place to work, especially those who are a little rough around the edges.

During the interview there nice and make the company look good. Once you start working there you see how everything they told you about the company was a lie. There is no training was so ever but they do get mad when you do something wrong. The people that work there seem nice but then you realize that most talk bad about you behind your back. There are no raises and if you ask for one they get mad. This company has a really high turnover rate, so that should tell you how good the company is. I personally do not recommend anyone to work for this company.

I truly enjoyed working for Kingspan, if relocation was not a concern I would have stayed longer. 

Management improved over time but there was still a high level of stress due to work load. 

Management listened to concerns and suggestions. 

Management is not professional, your schedule is always changing, there is favoritism, if you ask for days off they get mad, no real training to do you job, they expect you to come in knowing what your supposed to do. Work environment is unhealthy, nobody likes working there but no one does anything about it. I would not recommend working here.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
No answer really the best part is leaving

worked here 2 years. was an essential part of the production line. always had to ask for a raise did not get paid fairly. most of the guys who work there have been there a long time & are for whatever reason don't look for work somewhere else. management is not very good, they do things backwards. always asked for opportunity to move up they said there was but never made any advancements. so glad i left this job.

The company worked well until upper management and HR removed, one by one, any person with practical experience planning work orders and logistics. We coasted for a year and a half, during which a series of building and site managers were rotated through without the understanding of the processes required to manufacture product. They would make promises and set delivery dates which were impossible to meet due to physical production limits.
