Leviton

I have worked at Leviton for a couple of years, solely because the schedule agrees with my current lifestyle. From the moment I had my interview, there were red flags. I showed up for my interview, only for them to tell me that particular manager has been out for vacation- Human Resources has no clue what's going on with anybody that works there. Luckily, I was able to interview with an entirely different manager who, after I was hired, I never had any interaction with. The Interviewer was a little insulting, responding to a question I asked starting with, 'Well, IF you're qualified..." She had a copy of my resume in hand and had obviously not even looked at it or she would have probably realized I was overqualified for the position I applied for, if anything. During my time there, I've had numerous negative situations that required me to get management involved, which did nothing, so then I turned to HR several times thereafter, which also did nothing. I have even filed complaints with OSHA because they refuse to fix so many issues, and would lie to us or give some excuse about the issue. This company, at this location, is run purely on favoritism and discrimination. Members of management are more concerned about their friendships with each other than actually doing their jobs. Therefore, there is no room for advancement unless you befriend someone that's already in an advanced position. They do not care about or appreciate their hardworking employees, and they allow so much disrespect and behavior that has no place in a work environment to begin with. The only upside to working here is that it's typically a very easy job, and the schedule is nice if that's what you're looking for. Otherwise, I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone looking for a job.

Great environment, pleasant work load & most of all the people is what makes it a great place to work. From day one I felt very welcomed & at home, if you walk into a place & feel that way right way you know it’s a good environment.
Most everyone treats you very well from the Recruiter On-Site who really cared about her employees & was an excellent Recruiter & wish I had other Recruiters as great as she was, to the Management, Trainers, Line Leads and all the other Co-Workers I felt were all very nice to work with & treated me with great respect.  
I was frustrated because I tried my best for several months at getting on as a permanent employee & them knowing how much I love it there & have expressed it many times & still don’t understand why they won’t hire me as permanent even after proofing myself with excellent attendance, learning many different processes on different lines with a can do attitude & got along well with others, always willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done for the Team/Company & always willing to work O.T. whenever needed. Don’t think there was anything else I could have done to proof to them this is where I want to be & still haven’t given up hope & won’t until same day I feel they just might hire me. If it’s important to me I don’t give up & this place is very important to me to never give up until they hire me. I really miss it there, again it’s been one of the best experiences I have had in the working world & feel it’s a good fit for me not just because of the people but also the schedule & location.

This place basically felt like a prison. The warehouse is not climate controlled. In the winter you have to wear a coat and gloves all day. In the summer, it feels like sitting in a car with the windows rolled up on a 95 degree day. But, of course, the offices were climate controlled. I almost passed out from heat exhausted many times through the summer that I worked there. Everyone hates their job and they are all very bitter people. Coworkers are constantly stabbing each other in the back. The office never really tried to do much to boost any of our morale. The break Room and bathrooms didn't have any kind decor that might make the place seem less prison like. They tell you that you can get a raise every time you learn a new task or department but the standards for production were so high that it was almost impossible to reach your goal numbers so that you could advance to another task. Leadership never wants to rotate anyone from their normal positions, which are repetitive and mind numbing. Changing up our daily tasks would rarely if ever happen no matter how much the workers asked, even if everyone already knew how to do each others jobs. They would rarely let females learn any kind of machinery, like forklifts or cherry pickers. Things constantly get stolen from lockers and the communal fridge. When confronting leadership about stolen food, they won't do anything about it. I've worked in other warehouses before, but I will very honestly say this is one of the worst places I've ever worked. Working there put me into a deep depression.

In my experience, the daily standup meetings and additional reviews often feel unproductive. For a company with an established product line, there seems to be a significant focus on backfilling documentation rather than advancing projects. Upper management frequently engages in meetings and requires updates via tools like Smartsheet, which can detract from actual work.

The work culture limits opportunities for social interaction among coworkers during business hours, affecting team cohesion. I found it particularly concerning that the Director of Engineering openly stated, "I am not a hands-on engineer; I can't do engineering work," raising questions about leadership in technical roles. Additionally, this director has been known to belittle other directors behind their backs, which contributes to a toxic atmosphere.

Management sometimes fosters an environment of hostility, particularly when shifting negativity away from themselves, creating a challenging space where accountability is not evenly distributed. The overall management style tends to be quite hands-on, leading to a micromanaged atmosphere. Some senior team members may not promote collaboration, which can be difficult for new employees.

While there may be opportunities for growth, potential candidates should be aware of the meeting-heavy culture and management approach.

The company has been around for 116 manufacturing innovative electrical technology for industries like commercial, residential, industrial, lighting, and network solutions. They have proven success and skill in every department, but specifically engineering. I've heard about Leviton as a great company for engineers from my university, and even though I'm only 3 months in, I can see why. The products are intelligently designed, checked rigorously through thorough testing. It's not only a great place to start as an engineer, but there are actually a lot of long-timers that have spent most of their career here. The company is very big on education and teaching you the "Leviton" way. The onboarding process is informative, and managers do a great job in providing you the tools and information you need for success. I've been at a couple different companies, and I'd say the onboarding process has been the most helpful. The hiring process for an engineering position is long and thorough, but most likely due to completion, there's a lot of engineers that would want this position and the managers select very carefully.

In the beginning and through most of my time there, the work was creative and fun, pay was decent and the staff was very professional with good synergy. We built a good team of designers, engineers and technicians for our product line. Toward the end of my employment the company was hit hard by a recession and staff reductions became the norm, as well as other corporate restructuring. Our local culture suffered a massive drop in morale and management lost sight of employee needs and development as well as the product quality and specifications. The focus became the bottom line and grinding out products that did not sell. Staff was cut to one quarter but development schedules were not adjusted. The highest paid and skilled engineers were laid off and unqualified members of our department were assigned tasks above their skill levels or abilities. Some staff members rose to the occasion but the occasions became more frequent and when the staff members could not resolve issues they were reprimanded. Eventually, the entire staff quit and the division was closed because it could not meet it's mission.

While you are working there, everything is constantly in motion. Production is very high and you do have to be fluid to maintain pace and adapt to hangups that may occur, but, with a solid knowledge of your position, you can stay ahead of the curve.

There is a disconnect with management and laborers, and the work hours can become grueling (12 hour shifts). However, most departments are on a 4-on/4-off schedule that affords a nice break between rotations and, as long as you are on time and perform well, your job is secure.

There isn't a great deal of advancement since most departments have only a few differing positions, but there is typically an annual performance-based wage increase.

The pay is not 'top-tier', but the company is a great place for garnering knowledge and experience in a manufacturing setting, increasing your chances to move on to higher pay tiers at different companies after a few years.

Terrible experience from the get go. Lied to during the interview about PTO and how culture was important as well as a .50 cent raise after 90 days which never came. I also can not forget to mention that i was told "occasional" overtime, yet it was nearly every week there they have to ask for volunteers and if not enough volunteer then it becomes mandatory. Was unable to use PTO i requested off and was told "we thought you quit" when i had scheduled time off and let multiple people know what was going on. Cussed out numerous time by numerous employees with no consequences. Culture is toxic, and one of the worst places i have ever worked for in my opinion. Never had I quit a job with no notice and in only 4 months as i have a strong history 4+ years at previous jobs, but this one took the cake. I figured i would return the unprofessionalism at its highest level.

Its not great, but not unbearable. No job is too demanding as long as everyone is doing their job. Unfortunately there are no repercussions for those who dont do their job correctly & there are a lot who dont. If you're someone with a strong work ethic, don't expect the same from others or it will become frustrating. HR is an absolute joke. They are only interested in protecting the company's best interests & not the employee's. HR lets their "superiority" go to their heads, even many of their department supervisors & shift leads agree. Many different shifts available but they aren't very forgiving if you have to miss any days. There is very little training, it's more of a "just do what I do" kind of thing without much instruction or help. In summary; if you're lazy or don't mind doing other people's jobs, it's the place for you!  There is no in-between.
