Takeuchi

A typical day involves assembling Takeuchi units and managing constant production challenges. The unrealistic expectations set by HQ in Japan add unnecessary pressure to an already backlogged facility. Leadership (particularly the former Kobelco crowd) refuses to hire qualified help and instead prioritizes friends or personal connections. Tasks pile up because the right people are not in the right positions.

I learned how poor leadership and biased hiring practices impact operations. I saw the importance of hiring qualified individuals who can meet business needs. I also learned how to adapt and problem-solve in an environment with little support or proper resources. This job reinforced the value of fairness and proper planning in management.

Management is disconnected from what is needed to succeed. They focus on personal connections instead of hiring based on merit. HQ in Japan sets output goals that do not align with the plant's actual capacity. Leadership fails to expand the team with skilled individuals and avoids addressing the backlog effectively.

The workplace culture feels strained due to favoritism and lack of opportunity. HR spreads drama and gossip, which fuels distrust among employees. The biased hiring policy and lack of professional growth create a stagnant and toxic environment.

The hardest part of the job is meeting production demands with limited resources. HQ pushes unrealistic expectations while leadership refuses to hire skilled individuals. The backlog and mismanagement make the work unnecessarily stressful.

The most enjoyable part of the job is working on the assembly of Takeuchi units. The process itself is engaging and rewarding. Working alongside coworkers who want to succeed despite the circumstances provides some satisfaction.

Constant , pointless meetings and an insane workload. CTO is utterly incompetent. Refuses to onboard you and just makes demands, then get mad when things dont work the way they think it ought to. They treat contractors like trash too. Just impossible to work with, they refuse to communicate clear requirments and just say “figure it out.” 

They also dont reward tenure. You’ll go for years without getting a raise just for them to hire somebody else at the rate you were pining for. There’s no plan for growth.

I have learned a great deal with Takeuchi Mfg. Facility maintenance was not in my maintenance portfolio in 2006 but has been a wonderful experience nonetheless. We are individually assigned a job but team work always comes through when crunch times arrives.

Many of my co-workers are counted as family and friends. We enjoy a very social work environment all while working as one team.
Most every day is welcomed with ease. In the past 10 years at Takeuchi, I've enjoyed the unpredictable challenges and difficulties that a maintenance program can deliver at times.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very happy in safe place to be.

The company has a product associates can be proud of. And there are so many dedicated and talented people who care about quality and the customer.  However, the leadership is top down and not collaborative, which limits the potential for greater success.

its ok. Not the best in pay for if your compare to other shipping jobs but its ok  Free monthly lunch. job hours 9-6pm. friendly people. Not much chance for advancement unless you know people up front. laid back atmosphere, but a high turnover rate. Job is easy as pie, but folks don't tend to stay once finding out the pay rate.

This company is a great place to work. No one bothers you if you are working. I love that we get an hour for lunch and 2 15 mins break. We can listen to our music. Just watch all parts that you are picking for accuracy.

As you come in everyone is friendly speaks to one another. Even though we work hard management always shows appreciation and tells us constantly about it.
