Tokusen USA

What is the best part of working at the company?
They treat there workers with no respect if your a team leader they can treat you how ever they want even if they don’t like you and the supervisor take there sides no matter what the situation is. And when you call and talk to hr about it they do nothing either. When u ask for a shift change nothing like they want you to fail. The say promotions from the start and nothing there but they got people who don’t work at all. If your a hard worker stay away they won’t take care of you what so ever be a bad worker and they will take care of you no matter what. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part about working at tokusen is they don’t care about there workers what do ever. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The environment is very stressful you have team leaders and supervisors trying to push you down instead of pushing you up like they should. When you have real problems at home like the flu or Covid they still write you up and say your wrong. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day at tokusen is people trying to provoke you into angry situations to make you wanna freak out on them because they don’t like you. Even when you try and keep you head down you have someone that has to poke and pray at you.

I was fresh out of trade school when I started and I gained some great mechanical skills from there. I was hired as an electrical technician and I can honestly say the majority of the work I did was mechanical. I was making decent money at the beginning but the way it works there is, once you reach your cap in 3 years time that is it. I was a part of the maintenance department and the place was unorthodox in that production had absolute authority over us, even when it came to safety. My immediate Maintenance Manager tried really hard to improve the department and the actual company, but the problem was they people above him would not let him do his job. We tried going paperless once and the company said that was a waste of time after we had already invested and conducted trials. This same management spent thousands of dollars on so-called safety features that didn’t last a month and as a result, the maintenance department would have to fix it or bypass it. This company just had an atmosphere of negativity that affects everyone. The company waste money, will not invest in new technology to make itself competitive.

A lot of motivated and hard working people make a living here. But they leave constantly do to being over worked. For 7 months I was stuck working my section plus someone else's section since that roll was never filled. It is already labor intensive with a single section. On top of that the other teams were short handed for almost 10 months, so overtime was always required every week or every other week at best. No incentives to do double the work. Your only support in these situations is your fellow operator if they can get a breather to share the load. I really enjoyed my first few years with this company when hiring standards were higher. But as hiring standards lowered, so did the reliability and overall employees sticking it out decline. leaving hard working men/women with a ton of extra work.

Tokusen is a very fast paced workplace. They are always short staffed. People quit weekly. Managers are never on the same page. You will work 12 hours a day, 3-4 days a week. They have a rotating schedule which means you'll work 2 weeks on days and 2 weeks overnight, not ideal for anyone with a social life. There aren't any attendance policies so you won't be excused if you're sick or have an emergency. This is an at will environment, you can and will be terminated for anything.. with no notice. Short breaks and an abundance of overtime. You will meet some incredible individuals working there, most coworkers are willing to help.

A typical work day at work pull Green lights do payoffs and do die work 
I learned how to make tire chord and see how it was made
Management was good
The hardest part about the job there really wasn't anything hard about it if I'd have to say anything would have been the Die at work but that wasn't hard
The most enjoyable part about working there was meeting new people making friends and learning something that I have never done before
The work cultural there is Good Very Organized

Tokusen is a very stressful and HOT place to work.  The management there does nothing but drive you into the ground.  The HR department could really care less about what kind of problems you are having and one of them doesn't really know anything about whats going on there.  There is no air conditioning so in the summer its VERY HOT and if it rains all the fans get turned off.  Its a miserable place to work and a lot of the employees are just there for a check and could care less about the product that's going out the door.  Morale there couldn't get any lower.

Decent pay, but not climate controlled and the machines put off alot of heat so it makes it even hotter in the summer. Material handlers and stranders work 12 hour shifts from 7am-7pm or 7pm-7am, the days are mon-wed or Thur-sat with every other Sunday for both ends of the week , you DO NOT get to choose whether you work days or nights and you don't get a option on what end of the week you work. Management sucks and they are sooooo unorganized that you have people not doing a darn thing and then you have others who get threatened to be fired just for going to the bathroom

Received all incoming part shipments, entered parts in MP2 system, labeled parts, & put in designated area. I had to keep a close eye on specification on parts received. Kept inventory of all parts in stockroom.  Checked parts out of stockroom.  Helped employees/mechanics find parts needed.  Shipped out parts that needed repaired & incorrect parts that were received. Unloaded trucks.  Called & scheduled pickups.

Check employee attendance, assign duties and monitor safety, production and quality throughout the day.

I learned how to manage and facilitate a production crew.

A positive teamwork environment with opportunities for promotion.

The hardest part of the job is maintaining consistency in attendance.

The most enjoyable part of my job is having accomplished the goals and tasks that were assigned to me.

BUDDY system promotion based company. 
Don’t bother making any plans on your days off 
Because  they have trouble hiring anyone and keeping them if you are desperate enough to work there all they want to here in the interview is I’m a safe worker and they make sure your breathing so if you are a good employee then you end up following a operator that’s worthless and you get burned out.
