Sunbelt Solomon

I had 10+ years experiance in winding. No college, just training. Cause of that I couldn't move to Supervisor. Was lead for 5 years, safety committee member for 5 years. Operated 2nd shift multiple nights on my own with no problems. Because I wasnt "PC" and "Flex" my scheduale for day shift. I had been terminated for insubordination. I had been told by H.R. that I should go to school for English........???????????? I graduate from Solomon High, I am American born, but couldn't move up cause I hadn't gone to anything after high school. Though i could agree, if i hadn't already spent 10+ years in 1 position, and on the same (Night) shift.Then I'd have tried to look for some education to help my progression. You don't have to be good at anything but saying "Yea Sure..... I'll  make it happen". Management has little experiance on the jobs their "Managing". My "Suprovisor" at that time had a degree in landscaping, And as an employee (slave), you can't say anything  without your job being jeopardized. The management that can't do the job will fire you for not doing said job good enough. I hired the guy that became my supervisor over my (Night) shift....................................see the problem??? Use to be a awsome place to work. The only reason I know people go there now is cause the money they flaunt. But I will say personally, MY OPINION, NOT worth any of it. They dont care about you or your life situations. They'll hire in a McDonalds burger flipper to fill your spot. I AM PROOF. I wish I could give out my info so I could personally talk to people about how they treated me and others that had put years of their lives there. But I'm not, do to possible repercussions from the company. All I'll say to finish is,.... Money.......... Great. The rest............Not worth a penny of the money they pay. They'll lie and make you work whatever hours they want as management goes home on normal hours. And if you have any complaint, your job will be jeopardized.

As long as you do not express any concerns/frustrations, expect management to help, do not end up have any physical or mental repercussions repercussions from long term exposure of your concerns/frustrations not being addressed, you have nothing to worry about!  You get 5 days off your first year.  They are your sick and vacation time. Management will look like they care, but it's only at face value. But that is after you spend frustration months of being oreintated to your job from hundreds of miles away from a Master Trainer that doesn't know how to train a person, let alone even help you do your job. 

You will reach out to your Master Trainer with the same concerns and frustrations and let that person know you and your coworkers are showing physical concerns to the stress involved. That person will not respond or give a run of the mill corporate answer about hearing you but we must be patient while the company is growing line.  And before you know it, you realize you are not apart of the good old boys club, you are no longer what we want, and you are gone!the life span of this position from what I have been told of people there longer than I, a year. Year and a half at most before the transfer, quite, or are let go cause they still think it will be ok.  

Nevermind that you have always done what your manager has asked. Even altered your work hours for the betterment of the team.  You will never feel that you are apart of the team or that you being there.  Not worth your sanity. They don't care about it either. 

Good pay, good benefits but management sucks. Having to work mandatory overtime is not good for family life. Can’t stay late, they’ll write you up or fire you if you’re still on probation. They’ll tell you “ your attendance or performance is not up to our company’s standards. “ Best advice I can give is to stay clear of the paint department. Apparently nobody lasts more than 90 days. The longest a person was there from what I’ve heard was there a year and he finally got moved to a different position. They take weeks to months to fix something and test it and when it gets to paint, all of the sudden it’s a rush job. I tried to move to a different position rather than leave because it is a great company but in the process I got a write up for performance where just two weeks before, on my evaluation review, I was doing good and up to company’s standards. If you have a write up, they won’t move you because if you are struggling in one department, it seems to them that you will struggle in another. This is a job for someone who is either single with no kids or divorced and paying child support. Very safety oriented and a lot of good people work there, I think that’s the best thing this place has going for itself. If it wasn’t for the decent pay I would’ve walked out weeks ago. I can see why they’re so short handed now.

HORRIBLE LYING MANAGEMENT. My co-workers were amazing and there to help me at any moment however mgmt are liars. They tell me on Monday that I am doing amazing and to keep up the good work then on Friday they call for a teams meeting and terminate me immediately with no reason at all. Later on I find out that it was only due to cultural differences. I still to this day don't understand what or why that happened. I was planning on a lengthy career with them. I was there for only 3 months and did everything I was told. I came in early and left late almost every day. I was giving 100% and they consistently praised me for my work and all my tasks I completed then out of nowhere and just like that boom they tell me that they are terminating me effective immediately.....they made me feel like I was a criminal and wouldn't answer any of my questions I had. They just shut me down, and shut me out. I would definitely not depend on this company to pay your bills. 

I applied and accepted a job as a CAD drafter and during the interview, there was mention of helping with testing when I didn't have anything to do So I assumed this would be in the event there was zero to do and that was not the case it turned out they wanted me to train to fill 4 additional tester positions on top of drafting and building control boxes that is a total of SIX jobs I explained to them that I didn't think they would find a decent drafter to fill this position with all the extra work added in there and they kind of just blew off what I said so the next offer I got I informed them unless we could make the drafting position 1 job I was going to be putting in my notice which they accepted and I moved onto my next opportunity management was fine leads were nice people but I just wasn't interested in learning to do 5 additional jobs on top of the drafting position I applied for 

For starters- I was promised a raise after 90 days which deterred me from taking a new job. After 90 days, I was told I had to be with the company for a year to get a raise or move to a new dept to get a raise, so I moved to Padmount thinking I’d get a raise, but all that got raised was my blood pressure from constantly working 60 hr weeks with a massive overload of work that needed to be done & could never catch up on. I hated this job with every fiber of my being, I woke up mad, got off work even more angry & exhausted. If you enjoy being worked like a dog by a supervisor with perfectly manicured nails who has never got grease on his body a day in his life nor knows how to do your job or help you… go ahead & apply. Otherwise… you’ll feel like you’re getting undercut massively for the work you have to do & unappreciated. 

The day to day is a same thing except different scenario. You know what your doing, but the daily obstacles change regularly. Overtime is a pro, but was also mandatory. And for many, it was unnecessary. There are departments that are not than a year behind schedule due to poor management and leadership. While the manager and leads responsible for this are no longer in those positions, the expectations to get it caught up are unreasonable with no support from satellite facilities even though they are aware of the capacity of the temple facility. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people are rather nice, you usually work with a group of people who are very nice and out going 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
As with any work place there is bound to be one person you don't get along with, there is no course of action taken when a coworker is making your work life miserable 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It was fine at first and then I had a male coworker harass me with no repercussions 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I got there at 6 am went for a fifteen minute break at 830 am. Then worked until 11 and went to lunch for 30 min then went back to work then went to break again around 2 for 15 minutes then went back to work till end of day
