I was a CO-OP for 9 months with LLTI/SPG Laser Light. It was a great place to work. I felt like I was welcomed and part of the team. The work environment was both casual and very productivity driven. I felt comfortable being myself and having fun with co-workers while also managing to stay productive. The facility is a very cool place to be in. Clean rooms and lasers are all over the place! The work was interesting and I received a lot of support from my supervisor, coworkers, and even higher management. When it was only LLTI and we had not yet been bought by SPG, it seemed like there were no boundaries between management and other levels of employees.  And even after we were absorbed into SPG, their higher management seemed to have similar intentions. 

This facility is very high performing and you are asked to put in 110% sometimes, but you feel like you are working to a goal and as a team when doing so.  This work is mostly for medical devices, so the quality standards are very high and continuously improving, so be ready to adapt! 

I believe that this CO-OP experience spoiled me as far as what to expect from a company. So I would highly suggest working at this fantastic and ever-growing facility. You won't regret it if it is still anything like it was when I worked there.  

My only problem with this job is that it desperately needs better management. That can be hard because the Medical assembly field can be so unpredictable. I’m glad to hear that we are going to be getting some new equipment so some of the outdated machines can be maintained better. We are also growing so we need more machines. 
The manager is quite the taskmaster who is trying to create a much leaner work environment. Where as before it was just get it done. No matter how , how much scrap was created ,how long it takes, or bizarre way we can come up with to complete the task. Glad those days are gone for the most part. Some remnants still remain but not many. 
Overall not a bad place to work. Overtime is not for everyone but usually is short lived not steady. 2nd op’s has the most mandatory OT potential. If you want to do OT. 

Running presses , sorting.   Process involved in Molding, inspection.   Mgt operates via email and absent from mfg area 90% of the time.  Culture is fear driven, negative and chaotic at this time due to layoffs on July 1, 2025 for slow sales, little profit and losses, also due to many other factors.  Layoffs were triggered by DuPont (owners of Spectrum), whom demand a specified amount of profit each quarter to appease their shareholders.  We failed to make the numbers they expected.

A lot of empty promises, no room for advancement, a lot of favoritism. There seems to also be a lot of micromanaging. They do not value you and your complaints to HR or supervisor and management. It's a high school employer with Junior high employees. A lot of segregation and separation if you do not fit in. If you seem to go against the grain then you are considered an outcast. No room for advancement and promotions as promised from the beginning. Overall structure very poor.

You know ow the saying, hard work pays off. Well here it's hard work gets exploited.people will purposefully do poor work of mess up just so they get easy assignments. If you show your a hard worker 9/10 you will only get the hard jobs. If you are sick without sick time they will take your pto and still dock you attendance points. Even with medical notes it's a unauthorized absence and will get you strikes on your record if you don't have sicktime. Worked here over a year, lot of backstabbing and harassment that hr doesnt address

A typical day at work from beginning to end is very technical in every aspect, from making sure all safety gadgets to all exact procedures of production are followed. I get along very well with my team co-workers we really have to pay close attention to detail and for this we relay on each other to make sure we are accountable for the production quality. I have learned time management in a fast paced position and still provide quality products.

If you show them you are a hard worker they will overload you until you burn out & quit. Saw it happen to at least 3 people. you will be assigned way more work than you can complete in an 8 hour day. The addition of the new general manager didn’t help.  Nothing is done efficiently, a 15 minute scheduled meeting will last 2 hours & accomplish basically nothing. the turnover rate is extremely high. There is no training 

They will find by any means anything to pin you down. Look at their buddy the wrong way and you might be sent to HR. Lots of work but very little consideration for their employees. Encourages communication and trust but hey, don't dare stand up for yourself or others.
You'll get fired for it. 
Not worth it. Long repetitive hours with little to no compensation for that hard work. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
I loved to clean environment, and I loved the press machines.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Nothing was stressful about it

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very multi diverse, it was many cultures working there.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
You go in, you get your job done, and you go home it’s very simple.

Professionalism is totally absent. You get let go at anytime based on one person feelings towards you. There will be no notification and judgment is passed unprofessionally.
 I was let go while on my honeymoon. My time off was approved by my supervisor. Upon my returned to work, my punch in I’d was not working. Four hours into my shift, I went in to HR office only to be told I took too many days off.
