Z-Axis

In my career I have never worked with as many dedicated and passionate coworkers as I work with at Z-AXIS.
It shows a lot that several employees have recruited their husbands, wives, children, cousins, and friends to come join the Z-AXIS team. Not only are there several family’s working together, but everyone together completes the Z-AXIS family. It is always family first here no matter what.  

Popcorn provided every Friday to the employees, free coffee, hot chocolate, tea, quarterly lunch ins catered by several wonderful local restaurants and bakeries, VERY generous employee bonus EVERY year, company anniversary parties, employee Christmas party at country club includes live music and a magician. Lots of opportunities to grow in every job and also within the company. 

The honest trust is the biggest issue in last few years was company growing so fast  (every companies dream) but there was growing pains. 
The company and employees continue to rally together to grow and get better daily. 

The company continues to grow in revenue year after year but is still small enough that every employee makes a difference in just how much the company succeeds. This is not a company you can hide in as every employee is a critical part of the team. The company wide goals are employee and customer satisfaction so every decision made, is with those two goals in mind. 

The future of Z-AXIS never looked so bright.  


Management was very poor and not understanding. Lots of miscommunication between management and those they deem as lower/lowest level. Communication is hardly a thing between floor manager and assemblers (lowest level). Won’t tell you if and when your department lead has changed and just hope you will catch wind from others. If there is an issue or misunderstanding you will get reamed out and told that there’s the door and you can walk out. Even if the issue was brought on by the manager themselves. I don’t recommend working here for long. People are great here. But management could do a lot better. Advice for those who want to work here. Heads up you have to have 40hours a week. If you miss time you must cover it with PTO or your personal (unpaid time) and you get around 16 hours of that a year. If you don’t have the time to cover it you will get a 3 day suspension. So be careful. Another thing. Don’t use paper towels after washing your hands. Only allowed to use the blow dryer in bathroom or you will get written up. Per handbook. Another thing in the handbook is your not allowed to have any rings on. But they allow that to slide but give you a write up for using paper towels. Your training is all hands on. Make sure if your new that you have someone checking your work consistently or else there could be lots of issues if done incorrectly. There is a high standard do to the 610 standard and the other regulations. That I will give them which is good. But if your new you wanna make sure it’s done correctly/properly. 

Z-Axis is an establishment that lies to get you within the door. Throughout my 16 weeks with the company, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone looking for structure, proper training and inclusion within a new workplace. You receive no hands on training and are reminded daily that “no one knows how to do your job title”. If you voice your frustrations to your manager, all management will know sooner than later due to the lack of confidentiality. 
 Any new ideas will quickly be shut down by the president. The turnover rate is extremely high, especially for this position! They have had 3 individuals (including myself) just this year in this inventory role. That alone speaks volumes to a company that lies and says their  retention rate is 99%.

On a positive note the most friendly people in this building would be your DOC control ladies, engineers/ engineering manager and your MF Engineer manager. These are the only people willing to help you to the best of their abilities. 

I’ve never been surrounded by so many people that are just plain miserable, hate their job, or both. Management is beyond toxic; constantly talking down about someone, can’t make decisions in a timely manner or decisions change every hour, and there’s always urgency but no one seems to actual know what’s urgent. Training is abysmal on the best day which leaves you to figure things out on your own. Most of the people on the floor are friendly, at least while you’re in front of them anyway. So much corruption and toxicity in one place that unless you absolutely need a job skip this one. 

To end on a positive note…
They do offer free popcorn on Friday, work schedule is somewhat flexible, and there are a couple (literally just a couple) of good people that you’d be lucky to work along side. They do offer a bonus at the end of the year, it’s okay at best but it’s something. 

Z-axis  has been like a big family (literally as most people that work here are related in some way). They are really accommodating when needed and are constantly trying to better themselves! There is a place for everyone as long as you're willing to learn and show up to learn. There is so much growth and opportunities to grow here. Something that I've never encountered in the places I've worked is that the president of the company is here and involved in the company so much. He also knows if not all then the majority of everyone's name! Can't wait to see where this company goes in the future.

This place is a joke.  Better know the job and be able to do it on your first day.  There is no training at all and don't you dare ask a question .  There's barely any employee recognition even in words such as "good job".  The owner is not a nice person...enough said right there.  He and his Mgrs under him manage the bully style.  It's very demeaning and it's not unusual to see people crying for getting yelled at.  If you get on the wrong side for anything,you are targeted and most likely made the list to not be there long.  The health insurance is awful.  Truthfully you're better off not having health insurance.  My medical bills amdprescriptiond were cheaper without the insurance.

Great daily collaboration, on hand management team. Every employee is valued, no matter the job title.  Many advancement opportunities, as long as you are putting the work and open to continuous learning.  President/ Owner knows each employee by first name. 
Great work culture- quarterly safety lunches- popcorn Fridays, free coffee and tea. 
7am-3:30pm work schedule, overtime available 
Excellent benefits, medical, dental, vision and 401K- just name a few!! 


The company for about a year and a half was running on all cylinders. Then a poor hire in management seemed to dismantle all of the progress we made. Due to the inadequacy of the management team. They shifted the Quality Control manager to the Head Floor manager. Filling the QC manager job was the BEST sales representative we had. Needless to say. the sales plummeted and left me and a few others to be laid off

Not an equal opportunity employer.   Employee handbook is not followed too much favoritism too many family members in same departments Seniority means nothing rules are a joke if you speak up you are let go or situation is turned on you because you have a valid complaint.

Z-AXIS is a great change of pace from your poorly run big companies that make decisions based on monthly results.  The company has invested in new equipment and their employees.

If you have the will and desire to do more than you were hired for, you have the opportunity to move around.
