Techniplas

I have been at Techniplas for about 3 months and am amazed at how well the employees are treated!!
     I have been in the workforce for over 30 years and have never experienced anything like this before. As a new-hire, the employees welcomed me and came to check to see if I needed anything. 
     The management team appreciates me and makes me feel like I am valued as a person. I was welcomed and complimented on my work performance, which is average, at best.
     The other day when the supervisor noticed I was crying, he asked if I needed to talk to somebody. I said that my issues weren't important and I am able to continue working. Immediately, the quality inspector took the time to check on me to make sure that I am doing ok. 
     I didn't want my personal issues to interfere with production, so I insisted that my issues arent important. She told me that my issues are important to her if they are important to me. It took only a minute to vent and that made a world of difference.
     Today, I cant remember what I was crying about, but I will never forget how blessed I am to work for a company that truly cares.

It's a Circus From Hades! 
No one cares about those who do their best with what little training, equipment or support from Management.  "Run it till the prob stops" then it becomes MY problem and the threats, pressure and intimidation never stop. Not enough people with common sense, pride in their work, ownership of mistakes, and the blame game begins day 1. It's a fornication revolution  through out all levels and no one cares! 
It's going to be 100%ed  any way RUN IT! 
Always operator error, operators lie, when there are Techs too "busy getting busy"...machines running at breakneck speeds before the first pieces are verified it's correct and labeled! Material wasted because the dryer was not set up, or press set up with wrong material.  Now we work the weekend to make up for that mistake!!! And it had NOTHING to do with the operator! Micromanaging every single breath and movement because there are slackers...so everyone is a slacker! Old machines, over processed materials, oil running out, water lines leaking or smashed in press. 
NO ONE CARES!  Until the all hands meetings...

What is the best part of working at the company?
The work culture was completely unexceptable and they don't treat their employees like most family owned or smaller companies do. It was a shame to work there as long as I did. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management didn't ask for something they demanded in very rude ways and couldn't accept while being short handed only so much could be done in a night. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Awful.  Upper management doesn't realize that pressuring and threatening doesn't get the job done.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Working with one other technician, keeping 75 presses (older or used) running while doing die changes to a quota. Shared equipment such as hoses, bolts and nozzle tip in horrible condition.

Management is unable to leave specifically trained personnel to do jobs without demeaning comments  or constructive input even though management knows nothing of said job. Good place to work if you are able to hide from management or are able to smile and say “yes” and/or put up with infantile and unprofessional (sometimes violent) tantrums.

Management is Obsessive about how work space is presented and what may be in or neatly displayed on your desk instead of focusing on results. 

Individuals already in high positions are preoccupied with their own advancement; not employee or business success. This is a praise lacking and workaholic atmosphere that, if you are not similar,  you will not survive in this toxic location.

We were primarily an automotive supplier. The working environment was good but in the auto industry things can go from ok to bad quickly and the customer expectation is intense, demanding.
The management was a cohesive team and they did a good job of communicating with the associates.
I enjoyed the people I worked with and still have contact with many of them today. 
The hardest part of my job was when we got a complaint from a customer that literally required that I stop what I was doing and go home to pack a bag and get to the customer to find out about a problem. 
The environment at the company was enjoyable; a hard working skilled group of professionals.

There are employment opportunities for people of every background and skill level. As a technician, I have times that I can take my time, and there are times I kick it up a notch. Techniplas works with people's strengths, and helps them fill roles where they can thrive. There is on site training and off site as well for people looking to advance and grow, and if you're comfortable with the basics, there's something for you too. In this competitive business, Techniplas is a world-class leader in innovation, quality, and technical expertise, and I'm excited to look toward the future with these great people.

Company is run by old mentality creating a toxic work environment. Employees are not valued. They play the blame game; everyone is always looking out for themselves because they manage by fear of being fired. The company is not financially sound which creates more work, buyers have to limit how much they purchase, often they do not have enough product to produce finished goods, shipping late is normal. They are on limited or CIA payment terms because of payment history. Wasted potential due to poor leadership. 

This is the worst place to ever work.  As employees leave for other opportunities, no replacement is hired but instead work is allocated doubling workload to other employees with no additional pay but extra hours expected to be worked.  No raises given to employees only excuses on why not.  Supervisor talks inappropriately to employees, but don't try talking to HR because they are no help and only believes all the lies told by supervisor/management.  When employee gives two week notice, they end up telling you to leave and do not pay out any remaining vacation hours.  They make up and change policies at their convenience.

Clocking in 15 minutes and less before your shift starts, wait for supervisor to bring list out to see where you're working at. Press room, manifold or Bestop. Do 5S's, fill out paperwork and get everything around and start your shift. You either have a good or bad day/night pretty much if not both. 

Been at Techniplas for a few years. Lots of overtime or lack of work no in-between.  Disorganized and no yearly raises after being hired in. People getting hired in currently are making the same as I am when I’ve been there for years. Management and HR are a joke. Break room coolers are never stocked. No communication between shifts or between the shipping department with the rest of the shop so we’re always expediting parts or short shipping orders. People are nice enough to work with for the most part. It’s an easy job, but lowest paying factory in the county. Best to just clock in, do your job, and clock out.
