PB Leiner

What is the best part of working at the company?
4 on 4 off work week. With plenty of overtime available. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
There is also a senior heavy environment in which these individuals get to choose, and receive, the overtime they want, or choose none. The junior workers are left holding the overtime responsibilities.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Small establishment so it is cosy as everyone pretty much knows each other.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
12 hour shifts. With plenty to do even when primary job is completed; as the plant runs 24/7.

Company is in for a potential strike/ worker shortage if wages and benefits don’t grow with competition for employees from surrounding industries . Industry all around them have increased their wages and benefits while Pb Leiner appears to be in serious denial of their current position within the labor market. They current hiring pool is dismal and the less skilled/ambitious people that are being hired is having an impact on the workforce. Many could care less if they work at all. Changes need to happen to attract a better workforce pool or I believe Pb Leiner will struggle in the future

Smells bad, don’t hire the right people. Plant Manager well what can I say he’s never there. Great role model. Not so much. Not a place you would want to work. Management has no qualifications to do their job. Put people in positions that have no degree in the field and really know little. Maintenance Management is a prime example. Not good. If you can get a job anywhere else take it.

Good, faced paced work. Dirty, bloody, wet, cold environments. They do have other areas to work in though. But mgmt only cares about the money..at the end of the day..but I guess that's expected when you're at the top. Yes it's got some prejudice going on inside too, so be careful, if you're a minority.

The schedule is 4 on 4 off but more likely to be working 6-7 on and 1-2 off. 12 hour shifts but bounce back and forth between days and nights. Management is disconnected from plant floor. Some bright spots with certain people up front but overall front office has lost grip on guiding the plant. 

There’s a lot of gaps and miscommunication with management level. They don’t trust you to do a job but then expect too much from you because they don’t wanna do it themselves. Expect to work more over time than you are told so be prepared to get burnt out quickly. Bad management/supervisors make a job terrible. 

Great pay and plenty of paid time off. A lot of 20+ year employees, pension, good 401k match. Great healthcare, Union. Administration and upper management isn’t great but most aren’t.  Operators are the only people that know the equipment because all of the good engineers have quit. 

If you haven't been there for a long time you will be living there the 1st several years covering offshifts. People don't seem to last or they fire you. There's only a handful of people there that have been a long period of time. The turnover is getting worse. 

People abuse FMLA.  Some people hurry to short cut tests without validation, so that they can serf on the computer or play on their phones.  Management is always asking about the problems, but does nothing to correct them. 

Good work schedule four on , four off, twelve hour days. Managed personal for a safe and productive work day. Inventory control and supplies ordered and managed.
