The work isn't too demanding depending on position and management, but you will almost never receive a pay raise even if you go to a higher paying position. It is a fight to receive a normal pay raise. I have been here for 5 months now, still waiting on my 90 day raise, and even moved from driving equipment to welding. Was supposed to receive a $2 raise to weld and have yet to see any of it 3 months later. You can pretty much plan on being lied to day in and day out from the start.
They try to tell you that you will work Monday through Thursday work 3 Fridays a month and work 1 or 2 Saturdays a month. That is a lie, you will work Monday through Friday and work almost every Saturday. The people you work with are not to bad to deal with day in and day out, but you will have to put up with very pitiful upper management.

it wasn't bad for a while 40h weeks fri-sun off and paid weekly, and work wasn't bad if management wasn't standing there making you move faster than the weld will allow you.

as along you ain't mean to the guys you work with they can be relaxed majority of the time.

the management is bad and the only thing needed to say about them is that your a number to them.

the worst part about my position was bending over day in and out picking up parts off the floor consistently during the shift, and when they started doing mon-fri 6am-4:30p with every 2nd sat a 6am-4:30 so upwards of 60h week I left, too much strain on the body

the only enjoyably thing (and im grasping at straws) is the work it's generally easy like i said but the stress it causes will build up, or if management is there breathing down your neck 

The place sucks everything about it sucks the company doesn’t care about anything besides trailers going out the door and if there is a problem your told to deal with it and nothing is ever done to fix the problems other than writing you up for a problem that was brought to their attention and never fixed especially if a lead tells you to do something a certain way that’s wrong it is blamed on you not the lead it’s a place that makes you dread going to work every day and nothing ever is done to change it and if you try to make your work life better they frown upon it and then will threaten your job all because your trying to enjoy working in such a bad work environment 

You are only a number to them! No one knows what is going on, and everyone does the same job different. Their are no blueprints, no written instructions to the leads or supervisors. The new plant manager is not very nice. The leads, and upper management treat you bad. Their quality doesn't exist, they only care about numbers. If you need a day off for anything you might as well pack your things they will make an excuse to fire you. Every employee I worked with was actively seeking other employment. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great pay, and friendly environment.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When your stuck waiting on another trailer, and have done everything there is for you to do.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Laid back, mixed culture,and family feel.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get to work, hear the expectations of the days, and things we need to work on and things we've been doing well, and then go to work. I usually stay busy and focus on my job till it's time to click out .

The place feels like a prison and the managers are the guards. They will cut hours if you are getting ahead to make you have to come back and need the work. Your work is never good enough no matter how hard you try. If you find any sense of enjoyment whether it be cracking jokes with your coworkers, management say you're wasting company time and not being productive. There is a strong sense of favorability. Don't waste your time working there.

Other than the lack of benefits and advancement, I like what I do, it's just not providing for my family as much as I would like. I want to be able to benefit from more, as I am living paycheck to paycheck. They have me in every department. I know how to run that entire plant, but they refuse to give me a raise which wouldn't be an issue for me, but I'm doing the work of 5 employees on the salary of 1.

Spent a year and a half working for incompetent ignorant greedy pricks who value nothing of quality, only quantity. You don’t matter, just what you build does. Compensation is a joke, management is a joke, and parts supply is a joke. The most disorganized company I have ever worked for. When something goes wrong because of poor management, lack of organization, design, or corporates “best interests”, you’re the one to fault.

Don't expect your pay to reflect your skills, work ethic, or productivity. Raises were minimal, promises made during hiring didn't match reality, and communication could be difficult in a predominantly Spanish-speaking workplace. In my experience, staying employed there for a long time mattered more than performance or taking on additional responsibilities. I left feeling underpaid and undervalued. 

Basically living at work, management won’t let you know if you’re working weekends until friday for the most part, sales treat everyone like they own them, HR literally allows crackheads to be hired, christmas bonus was a raffle that most supervisors won. hours got cut down to 40 hours a week minimum
