Silgan Dispensing

If you apply as an hourly it must be through a temporary service. I left a full time stable position for a promise of a full time position here, at Silgan in Winfield Kansas, for  more money but the place and people are so disorganized and chaotic they lost track of my time and status with the temporary agency and I had to reset my time so I lost time invested, I still don’t understand it. My boss could’ve cared less. 
They train you for a couple days then you hit the floor, I was lost. The people are so used to an endless parade of bonuses migrating through the door no one bothers to learn your name cause nearly every will be gone in a few weeks, most just leave after a few days…..after all it’s just a temporary job. 
Safe is silky, there are parts on the floor, the machines are dangerous, training is just basically none. 
The machines are always down, bad parts are always jammed in the machines, out of parts all the time, it’s chaos. 

At Silgan as a Machine Operator in the Molding department you do need to stay on your toes and keep an eye out for your other operating machines. No lie this job can get overwhelming for some people like myself who prefer to work in a steady pace and concentrate on a few things at a time. To do this job successfully will require you to have speed, great focus, patients and perseverance. Not saying I didn't have all of these things, I just prefer a job that fits me a lot better.

In the beginning first two days you will get 1 machine to see how you handle it. It’s Real easy you will catch up on it the more you go. What I learn is not to be frustrated, Management is ok dealing with different personalities. The hardest part about it is just the beginning of work, only because you don’t really know how to operate it but you will catch on.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Horrible a terrible place to work 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
There is no proper communication amongst peers there.

They stopped providing sick time once it was no longer a legal obligation. They don’t give raises, to anyone ever. They don’t accept doctors notes and will fire you if you get hurt regardless of whose fault it is. If soothing goes wrong, you better hope you aren’t any sort of leader because they will blame you to save their own hide, and you’ll be fired 

Just a lack of communication. Well work balance, but then the pay wasn't enough for driving nearly an hour to commute. Also, the area was a little shady because I have trust issues in the area.
