Rinchem Company, Inc.

The day starts with information presented by supervisor or manager.
Coordination and actual conditions are not what they sound like, what you are told is what they want you to believe. Management-supervisory input is questionable at best and the use of the words "safety" and "best practices" are not that, they are pry points to get what these fellows want. Management is generally inept  and insecure in their abilities to express control through reason and fact.
Co-workers are nice guys, some are dedicated and some are lax. It appears like the ones who were interested in company improvements through organizing (failed teamster involvement) are being targeted for ouster. Hardest part of the job is trying to do my best for the company inspite of conflicted, ignorant (not stupid) work instruction that often times is couched in opinionated terms.
The most enjoyable part of the job is getting materials taken care of in a quality manner and having the products available to our customer when needed.
Be prepared to unknowingly train your replacement and then be shown the door.

Typical Day:  With dedication and hard work I was consistantly promoted within Rinchem.  However, no matter the position I held, from Customer Service Rep to Administrative Assistant to Database Administrator, I always felt as important, needed and appreciated as anyone else in this company.

Learned:  Hazardous Waste Operations. Emergency Response Training.  Challenging myself to innovate and improve.  Respect for our environment. 

Management:  Unparalleled, through their personal commitment of safety, accuracy and productivity to both customers and employees.

Co-workers:  Excellent, dedicated, responsive, efficient, and safety minded.

Hardest Part:  In retrospect... leaving.

Most Enjoyable:  Belonging to an organization of extremely high   standards, character, competence and commitment in a caring and family-like atmosphere.

it was ok it helped pay the bills, if needed I would do it again but only with a few minor changes to the pay rate! you deal with hazmat materials all day and there is no guarantee you will go home the way you came even with all the safety requirements in place there will always be the human error aspect of working with hazardous materials, its labor intensive work and corporate complains about giving out a raise in pay when they make millions of dollars in profit annually. the employees are what makes the company what it is today, or any company for that matter. the big wigs at the top only see profit which there would not be if not for hard working people at the bottom the motto is1Rinchem but the question is which1? 

Current operation manager (DJ) should be fired.  He makes fun of everyone and does not value the people that care about their job.  The talent will come and go because the manager's only care about bonuses.  The operation manager even talks bad about the supervisors in front of their employees.   Corporate should do a better job at screening the people they plan on bringing in to run their business.  Unless corporate does not care about Flemington and wants it to fail, reconsider the people your trusting to take care of business.  The management (D.J.)  are arrogant, they have no morals and they make fun of Mormon people.  Poor management style- does not try to learn about the business or our customers.  Although I need this job to support my family, if your interested in having a a career you better pucker up.

I've been reading a lot of negative reviews about the company. But so far being hired for almost 2 months now. I find it a good working place. If you are a hardworking person. There's a lot of room for advancement. People complains because they just dont want to work. People are nice. Management isn't a pain. And they commend you for hard work. Dont mind the negative comments about this company. It's a nice place to work. Except, you have to deal with chemicals all day and make sure to wear  gloves and proper PPE's. There's overtime and they start you of around $18 for a warehouse position which is actually above the average pay rate. The only thing that bothers me is the place is old. And needs a bit of remodeling.

Where do I even begin… I’ve worked here for 3 years, seeing all the shifts in management to the high turn over rate. I’ve been nearly killed here 2 times due to their absurdly bad safety environment that this trash dump place claims to preach about. Expect to work way more than you’re suppose to, expect to work way over your clock out time. Long term employees (mainly) warehouse techs are treated like garbage along with supervisors. All the managers here only look to hire and fire because of their bad safety rating and only look out for each other. They will hire new people with no experience and pay them more than you. Favoritism favoritism favoritism. Don’t expect to be recognized for hard work, this place has been highly disrespectful to me coming around year 2. 

Initially I thought that it was a good place to work, that changed the longer I was their. They talked about safety being a top priority, that's all it was though. Their actions demonstrated quite the opposite. Half the people in the warehouse would be fired from other warehouses I've worked at for being reckless and a danger to themselves and others. Drums of chemicals would vent a fair amount of fumes and if the cleanroom was working with certain chemicals the whole warehouse would wreak. The equipment was not safe and genuinely made me fear for my safety. One of the last things that made me decide to leave was reading sds's for the more common chemicals we had and realizing I was being poisoned everyday.

Honestly I expected more professionalism and safety from a chemical warehouse they get paid by the lb of product in the warehouse they will block isles with double and triple stacked pallets 4x55 gal drums per pallet blocking breeze ways and fire exist if they know a fire marshal visit is going to happen they will magically slow inbound trucks down to make space then back to normal after the inspection is over... Sounds legitimate right. Make sure you confirm the pay they offered you in the phone interview matches the job offer they will try and pull a fast one. I highly recommend looking somewhere else for work 

The schedule is one of the best schedules I have ever had.  It really works for family life.   Now the cons are, leadership is lacking in organization and actual leadership skills.  Driving is very minimal, be expected to drive a forklift and work in a warehouse.   The work is grueling and exhausting.  Every shift is at least 12 hours, there are times when you think your shift is almost over, but nope, they hit you with another truck.  The average timeframe for a truck is 2-3 hours, so your 12-hour shift just turned into a 14-hour shift.  This job is about others working together, however, teamwork is basically non-existent.  When others don't do their job, it is left for the other drivers to pick up the slack.
