Tritium

-HR is completely incompetent, terrible at not only communicating with employees but treating them with any respect whatsoever.
 - Ridiculous Point System implemented after hiring. Points are given for being late, leaving early, calling out in advance, etc, regardless of doctors note, bereavement, or any valid excuse (including Covid). You get 5 Points before action is taken, and they take an entire YEAR to drop off your record.
 -Denied promotion based on the above point system, even though I was recommended for position by supervisor.
 -Does not promote from within company as claimed when hired. Company continously hires outside employees for open positions. 
-Employees do not get raise or title change depsite being promised promotions, even after taking on responsibilites as required. 
- Work is not consistent, parts are constantly not ordered and you may be sent home at any time due to poor organization. No consistent 40 hour workweeks. 
- PTO must be used on holidays company is closed (i.e. July 4th and Christmas).
 -Poor management, supervisors constantly blame employees instead of taking responsibilty. 
- Knowingly send out faulty parts to customers, rush production but yet never order materials needed.
 -Constantly changing rules and policy, but clear favoritism is shown by management about upholding these changes.
 -Worked over a year at this company and witnessed extremely high employee turnover, with about 5-10 people walking out per week.
 -Was let go immediately after putting in two week notice, even though I was told I would be able to finish out notice by management.

What is the best part of working at the company?
They guarantee 40 hours of work, even if you have to push a broom

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They are currently being sold. Management does not know how to manage employee morale. Even though they guaranteed a 40 work week, if they decide to close the plant for weather or lack of work, they don't compensate. If you don't have sick or vacation accrued, you won't get a full paycheck. There is lack of work for weeks. Not many employees have leave to make up the days of not working.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The company does not care about it's employees. Morale is extremely low . The company is being sold and the future of the plant is uncertain. Many people are looking for jobs.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Standing around, looking busy. If you are not busy, you are told to leave without pay or get written up.

You come in have a morning meeting they give you a fake production goal. every two hours it changes. The jobs are easy but they run one week full then the next they have lack of work due to bad ordering process for parts. They have no advancement and will make your supervisors and team leads people off the streets and dont train them to do there jobs so none of them know anything about the production line or how to fix anything. The only good part was the friends I made but the company itself is its own worst enemy. They take no employee feedback at all. Then every so often they make you stay all day with no work and give crazy task like building 15 new desk and rolling chairs for the office staff or cutting and laying tile so they dont have to hire someone to do it for them but still only pay you base pay.

This company has lots of potential, but it needs lots of change first. 
Having parts is a hit or miss from week to week. 
They offer Lack of Work or “non-Production Days” to let you get out of there early, but that does assume that you have the PTO to cover the time, or it goes unpaid. 
If you run out of PTO and sick time and have to leave, they tell you that you’ll be pointed and next time you should use you PTO more wisely.
The point system is ridiculous, half a point for clocking out 5 minutes early, or 1 minute late, 1 point if you’re going to be 1-4 hours late, and it’s there for a year.
HR is a joke, if one of them misses their alarm and is an hour late, you get to be the punching bag for “bombarding” them. 

There are good people here, I’ve made many friends, my supervisors are awesome, but that’s it. 

HR is completely incompetent. They look out for the supervisors and managers ONLY. 

Horrible management skills within materials and procurement. Do not work here. They don’t know what they are doing. No communication and manager is disrespectful and will not support you. 

You’re always chasing parts and orders and they continue to have line down situations because they can’t plan ahead. Very dumb processes here and management does not back you unless you’re in her club of people. 
Manager shows clear favoritism towards certain people. Find another job. 

They also expect you to be on night calls (430pm, 530pm, 6pm) with Australia. They don’t tell you that part either. You will be miserable here dealing with the people. Horrible culture and it’s because of management. 

Find another place to work. 

The hardest part of the job is coming in to no parts and no idea when they will arrive.  Being assigned to paint the building,build desks and chairs, sweep or wipe walls down because we cannot run do to the parts problem. The people I work with are awesome management not so much. They don't care if you have a death or family emergency you can literally point out in the hospital if you don't have any available sick time. Policies constantly change, you never know what you are walking into on a daily basis. And production workers pay is capped at $20.

It's a good starting pay and the work is pretty good, but they're often out of parts. Most people will go home as you go a little crazy doing nothing. Some of the pulls are paid vacation and sick time. If you're sick and called out, but don't have accrued sick time, they penalize you as if you just didn't show up to work. You're not allowed to use vacation time for sickness either. Right before I left, HR wasn't allowing anyone to put in vacation time until we put in for specific days that Tritium told us to. We weren't given an option to not use it or to not work that day.

What is the best thing about working for this company?:
The pay and nostalgia this place gives you and imagination.

What is the stressful part:
Bouncy hrs depending on what department you work in and if you have points you have to wait a year to get it off then you have to worry about using PTO if you're sick and they also need more quality jobs.

Job Culture:
Grouchy people and a bit disorganized.

Overall,I think this company has potential but they need to focus on their strengths and weaknesses they have.


Company is running employees off with their stupid policies it’s HR ‘s way or no way. Plus the fact they can’t keep parts in stock to keep people working every day doesn’t help.and they do not promote with in as they like to say they do.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Holiday pay except they keep getting behind on parts your force to use it just to get a full week paycheck

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Uncertainty on hours

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Depends on your department not very friendly

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Moderate pace
