Polymer Industries

Working production at Polymer Industries is rewarding, if sometimes unpleasant.  Ambient temperature in the factory can sometimes reach levels of stifling heat and humidity, but this is less a criticism of the company and more an unfortunate reality of plastics manufacturing.  Employees there are encouraged to do what they need to do to avoid heat exhaustion and heat stroke.  Fans can be found at every workstation, and water fountains are nearby no matter where you are, so it's not so bad.

Newcomers to production will almost always start as a stacker at the end of a sheet line.  This work can be somewhat monotonous, but is rarely "difficult" per se.  Employees who show a good work ethic and attendance will advance quickly, though there are a limited number of positions to advance to.  Typically a stacker can advance to a utility (something like a hybrid forklift operator/break giver) or operator (employees running the machines, making adjustments for orders) in a relatively short time.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Come in prepare line and start running the day to day operations. Getting the machine ready and making sure it's gapped right . Check on materials and see if I need anything else.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Their leadership , they always make it to where you understand what you are doing and take time to walk you through it till you do, their very strong on safety. And the HR team is their to help you with any problems you may have. I worked there two times 4 years a together if I could go back I would but they have a new policy about hiring rehires they don't so if you get the opportunity stick it out 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I worked nights , learning the difference in the material you use

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's hot in the press rooms over 100 degrees, they have a variety of folks, that make you fit right in

It is a very fun place to work and has a very relaxed and supported work environment. The pay is below average in my opinion and so are the benefits. The hours were good in my department and there's not a lot of overtime that can be a pro or con according to what you like or need. There's not a lot of pressure pushed upon you to finish things quickly and daily pressure just about rules and things like that. He's a pretty relaxed work atmosphere it just doesn't pay enough.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
the other young people make u do all there work , and while they go off smoking behind on press 11 and 12 while you are inside working hard then when u say something to manager  the young people make false accusation about you.

Owners are very involved in every aspect of the job and they are very hateful they treat people like they are stupid! No advancement opportunities at all unless you know the owners or someone in the office personally!! The job itself is great I loved it but the pay is horrible and insurance is very expensive if you have the insurance it takes out most of your check it’s very bad! Management isn’t any better they haven’t got a clue on how things work on the floor and they just make your job harder! This place is horrible and very unsafe DO NOT WORK HERE!!! 

The most enjoyable part of this job was going home at the end of the day. Management plays favorites based on boot-licking ,rather than actual skill or experience. Management is misogynistic,  and doesn't bother to hide it. Insurance is outrageous, as well as useless, as employees are now finding out. If you are a convicted felon, no worries!! They will roll out the red carpet for you, so I guess there is something good about that place...

It,s a great place to work. The supervision is great, they come around every morning to talk o people out on floor and seem to care for workers. The money not bad. I just feel like it,s time to change and move on to learn more interesting things. And I do believe in giving 100 percent of a work day and take pride in my work always have. My work history shows that I will stay at job for long period of time and my absentee record is impeccable.
