Standard Technologies

My experience was overwhelmingly negative for the following reasons:
	1.	Poor Management: The leadership is unorganized and lacks clear communication. Expectations are constantly changing, and there’s little to no support for employees.
	2.	Toxic Work Environment: The workplace culture is stressful and unwelcoming. Favoritism is rampant, and there’s no accountability for unprofessional behavior.
	3.	Lack of Work-Life Balance: They demand unreasonable hours with no appreciation or compensation for the extra effort. Burnout among staff is common and ignored by management.
	4.	No Room for Growth: There’s no opportunity for advancement or skill development. 
	5.	Unfair Treatment: Employees are not treated with respect, and concerns are dismissed rather than addressed.

If you value your mental health and career progression, I would recommend looking elsewhere. There are better opportunities out there with more supportive and professional environments.

Was hired in as welder but got stuck in the grind bay and was the worse job there.Wasn’t bad at first but if a supervisor or forklift driver don’t like you,.. they can really mess you over on your day giving you the most crappiest work avail and the workers they like, they give the easiest work too so they can get their numbers out for some decent bonus money.They say everyone does the same amount of big trays to grind but not in my case.I got all the big ones to do Because the people that been there a long time will tell the forklift driver to give them to somebody else lower on the pole.And that somebody else was me all the time for almost 3 years. Oh... And if you wanna get talked to like a drill srg talks to a private on an army base, then this is for you.

Management is poor. Plant manager doesn’t weld therefore has no idea how to manage welders. Pay is poor. Benefits are poor. The culture right now is terrible. The pay isn’t adding up for the work they ask you to do. Low class workforce which benefits management bc they don’t have to pay. Lots of questionable employees. Theft is a serious problem bc of the employees. The bonus’s are a sham. They make promises to get you in and then they create reasons to justify their lies. HR is deceitful and untrustworthy. They claim they’re making big changes but the employees haven’t seen them and have become discouraged. Lots of turnover. If you have a record and can’t get a real job Standard is the place for you. No loyalty. Just a low class workplace. 

I swould not advise applying to this place. I just quit this job because the lack of planning, and management skills with some people. The supervisor held a meeting talking about and going over production. One of the points he brought up was talking to other employees on the clock because it interrupts production time. But yet he chalks it up with other employees for at least 15+ minutes about non work-related things. The hypocrisy of this supervisor shows lack of leadership skills, plays favoritism, and can’t abide by his own rules he sets for the rest of the shop. Real immature to have the position he has. And that’s with some other supervisors in the shop past and present.

A good place to work with laid back atmosphere the boss is fair with pay and they have bonus program for production nine paid holidays. I work 2:00 to 10:00 Monday through Friday sometimes on Saturdays. It's hot and dirty but that is standard for welding work. I believe the owner genuinely cares for his employees and tried to make it a good place to work. clear precise blueprints for all the jobs and they had a lot of jigs set up to make the job easier and faster

Terrible work environment. There is no accountability and management will throw you under the bus without second thought. The good employees are bullied into extra work while the bad ones waltz through the day. Retention is terrible for all positions and there are multiple, legitimate reasons why. Do not work here unless you like to be micromanaged by narcissistic bullies. Your hard work will not be appreciated. 

Standard Technologies not only manufactures quality products, but provides excellent pay and benefits to employees.  Policies and procedures are very fair.  Time to learn a new job was given and supervisors assist with any training needed.  Flexibility with shift preference.  Owners of this company take interest in their employees and assist employees needs.

With the challenges most companies are facing with layoffs, closures, etc., this company is continually growing. If you put in the time and effort, the company will reward you. 
The owners are working diligently on providing training to management staff to ensure leadership is the same across the board.
