Strong potential, but management seems to be okay working on finite vision with infinite possibilities at their fingertips. There is no strategic plan and they do not look within to develop strong, loyal employees to build the company. Instead under the table deals are made and nepotism and cronyism reigns supreme. If qualified, management will find a way to block you from advancing if you are deemed a threat. Even if they are in violation of policy, they will say that you can't advance for a weak reason and come up with every excuse under the sun to justify their actions. After a few months of working here the pretty words and blatant lies will start to shine through that you were told on your first day. Work being done and the numbers don't add up. Accountability throughout the organization would do some good from the top, down. Restructuring is a necessity within this organization if it hopes to make it in the next 5 years with real leadership in place that can think for themselves and embrace a collaborative and employee engaged team environment  Survival looks bleak with vast terminations and constant weekly turnover unless something changes soon.

Leadership it Terrible, almost non existent, numbers is the only apparent concern of the company, playing shifts against one another, after being at the job a short time, you notice the lies; from the ones your told to get you in the door, to the conniving cut-throat competitive lies from the foremen; to "motivate" employees to substitute for their obvious lack of leadership skills.
This is a good company that is going to suffer the consequences of cutting inside deals for management, rather than actually promoting good workers, and listening to their employees feedback; they have many good people with leadership skills and experience, who will never be promoted because they actually choose individuals over quotas.
If you expect to be dealt with fairly and honestly, this job is not for you, if you enjoy being lied too and manipulated beyond belief, then you have found your forever home here. Upper management seems sound, unfortunately the managers in direct contact with employees care only for their company portrayal.

Enjoyable job with decent benefits, however management is repulsive to even refer to as management seeing as how nothing is managed in a professional way.
If you enjoy being habitually lied to by leads and management then this job is for you! if your looking to further your career in a company that treats its laborers as less than human so that your "leads" can get numbers and overlook quality and safety of built products in the name of "production" then this job is definitely for you! If you enjoy working hard and applying yourself so that someone else can reap the benefits of your dedication and hard work so someone's family can get hired and promoted to high ranking "management" jobs then look no further! And if you love not getting your promised 90 day review/raise, again look no further! But wait! there's more! You can accrue vacation which you can use when management wants you too!!! Is your child sick?no worries, you can get a drs. note that won't do you a bit of good, because your not sick. Dont wait! Sign up now and join the hundreds of others who have got fed up and quit!

During my time of employment my job title was welding it was a very fast paced environment, long hours but it was fun and very energetic. Some of my skills were custom welding on bandsaw blades that range in 132 inches-384 inches long every day was a different length and a different order but i enjoyed putting the customer first and giving them high quality blades that satisfied and performed there every need upon Bandsaw and accesories. Most of the staff were very friendly and outgoing there was never a bad or dull experience when dealing with my co-workers. Also threw my employment the job title that i held was very dangerous but i only cared about the customer but still in a way of keeping a well, safe and organized work place. The most i liked was the bonuses every three months and the cookouts that we had for our hard work and appreciation.

Growing company that is dedicated to its employees and to having an enjoyable place to work with a climate controlled building. 
 
The pay is comparable to other companies in the area, and we are an ESOP.  Advancement is available to those who apply themselves and take the initiative to go above and beyond their normal workload.

Excellent benefits!

Everyone is encouraged to speak up and give ideas for improving their jobs or the company in general. Most workers have a passion and take pride in their work.

Wood-Mizer is a very dynamic company with a lot of excitement and plans for growth throughout the world.  The people are great to work with.  They work hard and really care about each other as well as the company.  This is a great place if you enjoy working in a full end to end business and connect to wood working equipment.  The brand has a great reputation for taking care of customers and this legacy continues.

"Family Oriented" workplace that continues to cut health benefits for their employees and their families. They rarely give out raises, and promotions are rare unless you know someone high up. They say safety is their top priority but it is more like their 3rd highest. They change their bonus system (i know it isnt a requirement for them to give) to benefit the company and give us as little as possible. PTO is barely given and you dont get an increase until 10 years of working here. 

I only volunteered there one time. I helped younger kids with mental disabilities. The management was good and very engaging. There was nothing hard about helping kids bowl and be happy. The most enjoyable part was seeing the faces of the kids after you have helped them and hearing there stories.

It's the lousiest place I have ever worked. They don't know how to run a business there. There so behind on orders and they have poor customer service. They lie and make it out to be a good place to work and it really sucks once you get in there. The people that work there treat new employees like garbage and I don't want to forget to mention don't get hurt there because they will fire you right on spot.  Poor place to work.

You really need to know how to read prints and you will be fine. The insurance kind of sucks, but that is most places anymore. Lots of bonuses and pay is on the upper end of fair. Christian company that does not believe in working on Sundays, so you never have to worry about 7 day weeks. Things need to get done and deadlines can sometimes get tight, but everyone is helpful and friendly as long as you are not a rude person.
