Clocked in my wife an hour before she comes to work. Because she is waiting for my parents to arrive at home watch my babies and within an hour she is at work. And expect her to come home before 5pm so I can run to my 2nd job at fast food chain. This clocked in was just occasionally and started October2018. We don’t trust someone to care for our babies because we lost one child when she was two years old. We do not want to lost another child. Flextonics doesn’t understand this situations and without any warning myself and my wife got terminated. We admitted it was wrong from the beginning but our 1st priority is the safety of our children. 29yrs I dedicate my life to this company but what I got in return is termination. One family life changed forever. I need to look for a job asap to feed my babies and family.
Standing up for yourself, telling the truth, call it like it really is...after 4+ years working the production floor and working side by side with production and maintenance personnel one learns the factory capabilities and limitations. Unfortunately Daikin has a serious management turnover problem, here are some statistics in my 6 yrs 8 months:
- 7 line supervisors in 9 months.
- 6 ME managers.
- 5 EH&S managers.
- 4 plant mangers.
- 3 directors of engineering.
- 3 maintenance managers. The sum result: each new manager comes in with some new gun-ho idea without ever learning the factory or caring to understand those employees with first line hands on experience and product knowledge. And what happens? another stupid fact less idea of which puts everyone (salary and hourly) in a tailspin and their new idea fails miserably. Of course these overpaid managers and directors will attempt to blame the failure of their plan on the incapable implementation by the ME floor support personnel and/or lack of hourly personnel follow through. And then the manager/director leave and move on to the next job leaving the plant in the hole again. So, you realize you cannot continue to compromise your values or the truth and you speak up for both...this got me in trouble...I knew too much. Incompetent managers see you as a threat...the truth.
The best minimum wage job anyone could really ever ask for nice pay, great benefits
Do not do it! The company is totally mismanaged. The middle and upper management have no regards for the employees. They also claim no responsibility for their poor business decisions and hold everyone else accountable for their short comings. It is mostly a hostile working environment with constant battles and arguments between the business departments. If you are not a yes man or woman do not apply.
My advice is to go for it and give an try and see how u like it for yourself experience !
The biggest mistake I have made was going back to work before I was released from under the Doctor care !
Has the Manufacturing Engineer position closed?
