What is the best part of working at the company?
None, management is corrupt.  They lie and intentionally and try to fire employees they dont like or agree with. When you report a problem you become the problem.  Find anywhere else to be employed. 


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everything.  When you report a problem or something that doesn't go with their agenda,  you become the problem, and are 100% targeted for firing.  Nothing but biased judgment and one sided thinking. Horrible place to work. Find different employment.  Not a good place to work!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Horrible.  Targeting, biased and 100% run by a bigot.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
No planning,  bad direction,  jobs and assignments change constantly, then your held responsible when jobs aren't completed on time, which is drawn up according to who they like. Biased and not a fair work environment.

Washington Mills is a great company to work for. I'm slightly biased since I work in HR. However, this review is written from my perspective as an employee. Throughout COVID, we have been treated exceptionally well. They understand that people have lives outside of work, and that these lives might sometimes impinge on (or even take over). As a working parent, I appreciate that we have been allowed some work-life give and take - this helps build loyalty and commitment. I can frequently address employee concerns, questions and issues with management and ownership support for successful and positive resolution. The benefits are better than any company I've ever worked for. My direct manager is smart and helpful - someone I can learn from and am supported by. We have great people as employees throughout the plant and office and enjoy a close, family-like atmosphere. 

Washington Mills has been an excellent place to work, learn and grow. The community is kind and caring, and people are committed to helping each other succeed. Opportunities to broaden your skills and take ownership of projects and other responsibilities that interest you are waiting for those who are looking for them. Backed by a management team that has embraced and supported new thoughts and ideas, I have been empowered to develop tools and systems that will contribute to the organization's and our employees' successes, domestically and internationally.

My day started at 6 a.m. Every 6th week there was a rotation of job assignments which required a 5 a.m. start. I learned the ins and out of elevators and conveyors. There was great communication amongst the management so everyone was on the same page making things run more smooth for everyone. My coworkers worked great as a team and most jobs were completed in groups of 2 or 3. The hardest part of the job were the working conditions requiring dust masks to be worn at all times. The most enjoyable parts of the job were the people, the structure of the work day and the open communication between all employees.

The lead man of the department i was in always put everyone down because he "never makes mistakes." The supervisor is timid and doesn't know the job. The employees who have worked there for 40 years try to sabotage other employees jobs. the union is against the company and vise versa. They pay was good and overtime whenever but that's about all I can say I enjoyed about the job. I worked there with no issues, no write ups. All of my reviews were good. I Was there for 5 months and was let go because "I wasn't a good fit." I couldn't shower or come back for my stuff either. I was escorted off of the premises like i was a threat. It was embarrassing and i would suggest no one work here.

Everyone in the organization is focused on improving processes and reliability of equipment on a daily basis! The office area is very modern, and the computer system is inclusive and prompt. It took very little time to become comfortable with the way things are done here. 
Coworkers are friendly and accommodating, everyone is willing to lend an ear or assist when asked. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Really is a great place to work, but..... 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Wasn't a whole lot of stress... 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It was great in the beginning until some of the union leadership decides your fate 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Easy peasy, no pressure in the department I worked

A typical day; began with learning about which fires you had to address.  No 2 days were the same and dealing with an aging and decaying plant meant there was always something new to address.  Unfortunately there was never enough money allocated to address or fix equipment, solve the problem, etc., the right way. Management: No comment, you just have to experience it for yourself and make your own judgement. It won't take long.

This place is nothing but politics and most of the workers standing around. Hostile co workers and a super dirty environment, get ready to be grey for days, and the equipment is old and out dated. Good luck if you get sick and have to actually use sick time. You don't make enough money here for the stuff you have to put up with.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Leaving at the end of my shift 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Coming into work, with lazy lying team mates

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Environment sucks, it's not safe and there is no culture 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Days drag, you have to watch your back
