LATITUDE CORPORATION

Professionalism of upper management is questionable. Management makes poor decisions. The hardest part of the job is knowing that if come to work everyday and do my best that management doesn't really care. I have changed job titles within the company without getting a raise. The most enjoyable part of the job is the people on the production floor. The production floor people are like family but management doesn't see it this way. Management is all about getting product out the door. Employee turnover is extremely high which makes it hard to have good quality product. Training needs to be improved throughout the company. Upper management stays loyal to a few select people when it comes to annual raises. Companies are forgetting that everyone in a company is important and should be treated the same as a CEO.

What is the best part of working at the company?
They appreciate your efforts...plenty of chances to move up in company, thorough training. Positive vibes, good work atmosphere.   Production work . Great staff to work with, great company .

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Sometimes , keeping rates  up for production purposes.  Otherwise not really stressed.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Active and  busy environment,  makes the day go by

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
6am...Do my job, ( takes most of the day for each assignment.) break 9, lunch 12..work, ..cleanup, .  start next job if time allows..go home 230

The company needs to start caring for their employees. Everyday it seems like mass chaos / a chicken with its head cut off. Management needs to wake up! Many times departments will go on overtime when there is no work because other departments are so backlogged. Managers need to be more assertive. Many times my boss is never available due to being in meetings all day. The company has made many poor decisions. The owners don't really get to know their employees, only care about making an extra buck.

Management in all departments has no clue what is going on. They make up hours to work regardless of what you are hired for. They don’t care if you wanna learn something new. HR is is beyond rude. No one in management has any sense of understanding. They pay new hires more then the employees who have been working much longer. Holiday pay is a joke and everyone complains about there pay its ridiculous. Would never recommend working here unless you like working for cheap people who just push products over quality.  

Fast paced when we have work, no real written instruction.  Overlapping members of supervision.  You have the manager, production and quality manager AND floor lead all saying different things can be frustrating.  Some workers are allowed to do whatever they  want.  Asked to cross train or move to different area and they flat out refuse and no discipline, yet another worker will be shown the door.  Typical favoritism and/or racial preferences .  Two  employees are given better treatment than rest because they're afraid of them retaliating. Also  low wages typical of Tucson  other than that it's ok 

Nice people work there.Most are helpful and good to work with. They lack in a lot of follow up when you start. Also the pay scale is no where near where it should be.Nothing close to market value. Almost 3-5$ off most pay scales . Company is really out of touch with their current vacation policy. No vacation time for a year? Must earn it first. Then it takes 5 years to get only 2 weeks. Will get 2 sick days for your first 6 months and 20 +unpaid if you want. 
   

What is the best part of working at the company?
They purposefully maintain a very high turn over, everyone is always finding better places to work.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
You mean nothing to the supervisors and managers. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
A very unpleasant and fearful production floor  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very long, demeaning and painful. You spend everyday doing the exact same thing, repetitive motion injures be damned.

   Feel welcomed each day, lots of opportunities to learn with new projects and new products. A team culture thrives though project review management meetings.
   There are many good and positive people, from top management through all the ranks. I enjoy working with a diverse group of goal oriented people.
   The company makes parts with high cosmetic standards. The products produced are top notch and it's hard not to take pride in 
that. 

A place where you could learn the entire shop/machines. From powered counting, press break operator, welding overall fabricating.. & get .55-$1 raise for the year. They promise a lot but give nothing in return. A lot of “bosses” every single one has different task for that day. All of them don’t like each other & some talk about firing a certain individual. Big lack of safety. Safety guards could be down & they will tell you to run the certain machine. Life guards down for up to 5 years at one point. Lack of management. 

Job responsibilities are not communicated or when they are they are not clear. Pay is not distributed evenly, seniority means nothing as new hires are making as much as 14-year veterans. No one checks to see if you actually know what you're doing. Mistakes are repeatedly made. New people get minimal training and then left on their own. You could be forced onto a different shift and have the possibility of losing money or your job.
