Great shift. 6am-2:30pm. Absolutely zero traffic on commute and work is pretty straight forward, fun and the employees were really helpful and courteous. I have family working in the company that says it's great pay and easy work. They are not, however, working in the filters department. I have heard that the director of operations there doesn't like my manager or how he handles the filters department. If you apply there, DO NOT work in the filters department.

Even though our department was behind on orders, manager eliminated overtime and weekends. We had a 3 day period where we were out of stock on a vital component needed to build what we were building, and so whenever I noticed we were almost out of something, I would go and tell the manager, who would then smirk at me as if I'm cute and say It's fine but thanks. I would also go to him when there was a bottleneck holding up production and I was unable to work it through because I had been placed to do something else, and he would again, smirk at me as if I'm being cute, and tell me he has it under control, but thanks. It was completely disrespectful to an employee who is taking the proper attitude of taking the company's issues personally and bringing them up to his manager so that we maximize production and minimize problems, and he dismissed me like I'm nothing. When I was laid off, he didn't even have the decency to tell me I was going to be laid off. The staffing agency called me and told me. I went in the next day to get my things, and no one knew I had been laid off. When I asked the manager about it, he said "We're backing off. We were behind schedule but now we're catching up, which is a good thing." Okay I know for a fact they are behind schedule on a certain kind of filter they develop and yet he's cancelling overtime and laying people off. I felt as if I was treated like a piece on the manager's chess board. With my experience, proper work-ethic attitude and intelligence, it was an entire lack of respect to be treated this way.
