clock in,  turn on machine. I learned how to work with glitchy machines better. Management made false promises for improvements. Friendly people. Job was super dangerous. I heard stories of an employee loosing his thumb. Lots of room for making errors, cause you have to have every piece of wire cut within 16th of an inch, and you can get fired or written up if a order gets cut at the wrong length and with 20 to 30 orders a day its easy to make a mistake. Nothing was enjoyable about the job cause there were to many rules. No cell phone usage, had to wear gloves constantly. Basically the job was not enough juice for the squeeze. Not enough money for $16 an hour.  My ears used to never ring, and now that I'm not there at Madix, my ears are still ringing. I bought ear muffs that were rated at a higher decibel too. The Sub communications from all the C0-workers felt dismal, downtrodden and despair, cause room for improvement was grim. 

While a few supervisors are actually decent, most have little to no organizational &  interpersonal skills in the workplace. If you have the misfortune of working for one of the latter, it will be next to impossible to transfer out since no one else wants to work in the poorly run departments. Being competent and reliable in these areas will not net a motivated employee anything. Be an example of the exact opposite ,however, and you will go far. I was looking forward to an extended career at this company but my three months with them so far has squashed that along with their loosely enforced & monitored safety standards. The job is currently convenient to my location and only serves as a stopgap until I can find something better.

First thing in the morning, inspect forklift. Then go to the shipping office and view my orders for the day. Then make a list of the orders then get to pulling them to the dock door. The main thing I've learned at my current job is how to be a strong team player, and with that it has pushed me to learn certain skills to improve the team. The management is great, they push us to strive to do our best and do so in a way that makes the job as trouble-free as possible. My co-workers are also great, everyone is very understand in daily problems you may encounter, and are always offering a helping hand. The hardest part of my job is mainly just some little bureaucratic things. The most enjoyable part of my job being able to work with people that have common interest and that are enjoyable to be around.

The plant here is very outdated! You can literally tell this plant is very cheap. The forklifts reek of gas leeks. The computer monitors for some of the machinery is the literal boxed computers from the early 2000. THERE IS NO VENELATION Systems for the welding dept whatsoever. There is no hot water in the bathrooms. You have to use a janitor sink to have hot water Nothing in that plant has ever been cleaned. That place is the most disgarded  plant ive ever seen. There is no 5 S system at all . I have never seen a run down plant before besides this one. Nothing is organized . Maintanence doesnt even fix issues the supervisors do these people do not care about their employees they do not follow osha guidelines i would not reccomemd working here unless you just cant get a job

What is the best part of working at the company?
Growth, if you want it, you can get it. It doesn’t matter male or female. If you want to make something out of yourself there you can. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Making sure that you’re producing top notch merchandise for customers in a timely manner

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I’m not gonna say it’s laid-back, but everybody gets along and most cases

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
it’s production so a day at the company is producing parts pieces depending on where you’re at you get a break every two hours lunch at four hours

Leadership change in 2021 created toxic and hostile work environment throughout the entire organization. 

Customers no longer regard the company as trustworthy or dependable.  

Alarming number of employee's, in every segment -management to manufacturing, with 20+ years of service have resigned since 2020.

Employees are encouraged to speak up during meetings; however, if they do it usually resulted in a reprimand.




typical day at work included many task. what i learned from madix was how to read blueprints and set up hydraulic break presses. management was okay but on night shift we hardly ever seen the supervisor. enjoyed working with the fellow employees most of which try and help you do better. hardest part of my job was there was very limited training you learned as you go. most enjoyable part was it was pretty much laid back. fast paced but as long as you got your  work done nobody ever complained.

When I first started there I knew what I wanted to do and my lead man in tubing helped train me to do it. I later became the most knowledgeable person on my day shift to punchin tube and I was really trying to figure out a better way totrain new employees. I did get promoted but later stepped down due to being wrote up for another employees bad parts. The company lost 3/4 of a big contract and laid off 200+ staffing employee's and then the following day I was put in another department even though I wasn't dressed for it and was fired after leaving the hang line to use the bathroom 3 times.

I opened up my department and got things ready for the day. Constant, productive work.
Learned more about deadlines, organization, how this company functioned and team work.
Management was always there to hear any of my concerns and always supportive and willing show me more.
Co-workers were always helpful and we worked well together.
Hardest part of the job were some of the deadlines were short.
Most enjoyable was staying busy and working as a team.

Worked here as a forklift operator in Building E. Pretty decent job. Made good money from working long hours. Management is nice and respectful. They seem to care. They always have something planned for employees like dinners and giveaways. Every year if your accident free you have a chance to win brand new truck made that year. The only thing I didn't really like was the fact we had to work mandatory ot on Saturdays for 6 hours. 11.5 hours Monday through Friday. That's why the checks were nice. Get paid every week too. I definitely recommend.
