High pressure, high stress meat grinder. It's all about the money.  If you're bringing in good business (big dollar revenue with high margins) continually, then senior management is your friend.  If not, you have a bullseye on you and will be constantly micromanaged and talked down to.  There is absolutely no formal processes for any operations for the entire company.  They are flying by the seat of their pants day to day.  Every day is spent putting out fires and reacting to various screw ups throughout the company from quality issues to late shipments to poor customer service.  This place is a house of cards and is barely keeping things together.  Won't take much to bring it all crashing down some day sooner than later.  If I were a customer, I'd be looking to take my business elsewhere.  If I was dumb enough to sign up to working for this company, I'd be looking to move on before they just get rid of me anyway.

This company lacks the basic fundamentals of any successful company. First and most importantly this company lacks proper  unbiased  leadership. Secondly communication doesn’t exist within these company walls and I mean in the most simplest form. There is no documentation that simplifies pre-existing procedures used in machining parts. Information is valuable and not shared to none other then polish speaking immigrants. Overall this company has so many flaws  that if they were somehow corrected minutely this company’s profit margin would show a lot of positive growth. But  unfortunately the powers that be don’t believe in the “American Way”.

PPS is a good place to work, management is accessible to discuss opportunities, new accounts, training, travel, new ideas, competition, or any other concerns I may have in the field. I have some flexibility to work from home or office which keeps my job work/life balanced but I prefer to be in the office if I am not traveling to customers.

I am in the market looking for a similar position because of the following reasons.
1. High turnover in sales staff.
2. Emoluments frozen and commission eliminated despite increase in sales & new accounts.
3. Benefits deteriorated, deductions increased, & disposable income has lowered.

I used to work for them last year and it was not your normal workplace. Nobody goes to their manager, they all go to the CEO. The CEO is very unorganized and that shows you how the company is being run.  

Beware! One manager is so arrogant and needless to say had to pay a fine to the FCC with his previous job that was NOT disclosed on his application and was further questioned with higher management and no action was taken.  Does that give you an idea how management doesn't care??

Just take caution if you apply to  this company.  The employee turnover is absolutely amazing.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
 stress-free work environment and proactive.

The supervisor I work for is a great guy very help full ,but he is always stressed out
there is a BIG  work load  put on him, Company ask him to do a lot of things with no support .Must do with no assistance or help from management, But best supervisor I work with in my career. shop floor is very laid back, I do whatever I  want attitude ,BUT BETTER MANAGEMENT CAN CHANGE THAT .other then that not a bad place to work 

Every morning, before my commute to work, I would say a little prayer and ask what have I done so wrong to be hired by this company? Negligence abound; management...what management? Everything funnels to the CEO, red tape and "clicks" within management inhibit a proper business environemnt. Would neither recommend to work here nor would I return; would rather eat Ramen and live in a box.

This is a great place to work if you are ambitions and want to generate value for the company and customers. The company is very willing to recognize a high level of performance - through salary increases, bonuses and promotions.

Great company to work for.  Co-worker's are friendly and helpful. Managers are always willing to give their support when requested of them. Jobs are easy and the work environment is lay back. No doing things in a rush here. Safety is first follow by quality products do it right the first time. 

I have never said this before but this company will be a stain on your resume. This is hands down the worst, most volatile job I have ever had the displeasure of accepting.I died a little inside every day that I worked here.
