Mack-Industries

I am a former employee of Mack.  When they bought the business it went down.  COVID 19 hit and they sent a threatening letter and it stated that if we chose to stay home, we would not get unemployment.  They laid some people off and made work for the ones they didn't lay off even harder with much longer hours.  They absolutely were not adhering to the new safety protocol either.  Some of the management plays favorites with certain employees and if they dont care for you, they make it so hard on you!!   They say they care about their employees but in reality, it's all about the bottom line. Which makes it ironic that they have an employee that has his own businesses as well and is robbing the company blind by running his businesses while hes sitting in his Mack office or using the company truck and equipment, being paid by Mack.  Hes been doing it for years and he uses Mack employees to work for him during Mack hours as well!  Their too blind to see what's going on.  His manager knows he is doing it and allows it which makes him just as culpable.  They work you so unbelievably hard and the pay is nowhere near what you should be paid for the work you do.  They expected me to do the job of 5 people in the office after they let everyone go and get paid for one!  They fired the one person that worked for the fair treatment of the employees.  They give you grief if you take your breaks or a lunch.   They have employees that like to harass and bully other employees and do nothing about it.   I could go on and on but it would take all day.  Their benefits are expensive and when you use them, they barely pay anything.  

If you like hands on work or working outside or have a valid CDL A or B, this is the place to be.  There are so many different things here to do.  It's very diverse in opportunity depending on the skills you bring with you.  The culture of the company allows for your growth and.  The management here allow you to see a lot of things and work with you to find the right fit for you and their processes.  As your skills and knowledge expand other opportunities may arise for further advancement.  You can expect 50-60 hour work weeks depending on the season here. The hardest part of the job are sometimes the unexpected scheduling conflicts that happen occasionally.  Maybe a piece gets damaged that a customer needs delivered ASAP or a load of concrete delivered late do to an emergency. But this is what leads to the best part of the job, is that here we always find away to make sure the customer gets what they need.  Which is what it's all about.  We go the extra step for the customer to keep them coming back.

this company has serious safety issues the only thing that matters in production their safety director will get you fired and employees are disciplined if they get hurt, many are exposed to very bad dust containing silica but management will oust you if you complain or if you say you are going to complain to osha they will fire you I have seen it. They dont care they say work life balance but it is all about production they all talk a good game but they are only about covering up. No training for new hires and the actual training is a joke they have a dojo where they give you a crash course but they dont let you understand the issues there watch out for forklifts as they run 50 mph thru the shop and will run you over if you aren't careful, I heard  someone complain once and they were not at work the next day so no I would not recommend this company for anyone who values their health and desire to be appreciated with opportunities

I had started with Mack during High School and continued for 9 years after High School. They have given me many opportunities to advance and try different job positions. Unfortunately, I had left the company for a period of time (due to personal reasons) but had come back this past year and can honestly say I could not be happier. They have improved so many employee incentive programs and benefits. They continue to give opportunities to advance in a career. Management is easy to communicate and collaborate with on any project or problem. Not once have I ever felt I could not approach a team member or management with any problems/issues. They are supportive and look for ways to resolve problems with you. I truly enjoy working at Mack Industries and cannot say enough good things about Mack.

If you're not afraid to get dirty and work hard you are well compensated for it. Great group of guys to work with and a family feel. Management works the best they can with each situation and they want to see you succeed if you put forth a hard working attempt well being on time and at work every day. 
The environment is  a little intimidating at first but doesn't last long as you get used to it. Mack has been in business a long time and makes a high quality product that stays in demand and so does job security. 
You work for your paycheck but its worth it at the end of the week. You see what you helped contribute to everyday. The management is constantly working to improve productivity and improve the facility every day. 

mack industries just took over stress con, with that being said they dont know what they are getting into. they failed to have working trucks for transport as well as a shortage in drivers which is only 5. the drivers clock in on a time card but not the elog and you could be at work at 6am waiting to get loaded and dont get loaded until 1pm. the production side of things is just as bad. they fire 90% of the laborers requiring the remaining people to help them of be fired.  they don't pay what the industries pay, as a heavy hauler i was paid 18.50 hr they have mixed pay structures from plant to plant. management doesn't listen to what you have to offer just shut up and work

Benefits and pay are good but overall not a great place to work. Safety is horrible, not up to date with OSHA standards. Owner/GM is the worst I have ever worked for. I have never worked in this industry before and since day one was not given any help in learning/ performing my duties as a Production Manager. With that being said, Production Managers do not last very long here because of the lack of training you get from the company. Maintenance, lack of, is really horrible. The maintenance supervisor is nothing but a typical backyard mechanic, nothing more and if you speak out about the maintenance you are black flagged. Until a proper maintenance team starts working here, the plant will continue to fail.

Safety is a joke. You could throw a rock blindfolded, and you'd hit a safety hazard. 

Your life better not have anything happen, because you could lose your job. The Job should be first and foremost priority to you.

Having a good supervisor makes it much better, but management still has unreasonable production expectations. You have to run as if the equipment was brand new top of the line, while actually using patchwork machines with most parts still from 1920 that break daily, with maintenance doing patch jobs, just enough to get it running for the next hour. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Boss and co workers were cool
Travel was awesome

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Heavy lifting I had to prove I could do the same work as my coworkers
Long hours driving and then working hard once we got to the jobsite

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
All the work was done outside in the heat of the day

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Start driving at 9 am not done until 6 
Then working hard at the job site  then crash for the night 
And start fresh in the morning stay until the job is done then the long drive home

I have wasted over 10 years at mack Readymix in Akron Ohio. There are lots of poor choices for the drivers and favoritism is at a all time high! The only way to succeed is to be in managements back pocket and don’t have a year around tan! And this mom and pop union is the biggest joke I’ve ever seen. It was not put in place to help or protect the employees it’s there so Mack can get on real union jobs. Mack is a decent place to start and get road experience but not a good place to stay. Mack is not a company you should consider a long-term goal of employment.
