Not Worth It

Pros

Good pay and good benefits, possibility for yearly bonus dependent on yearly production/sales.

Cons

Horrible management, willing to step on anyone to make themselves look better. No respect/care for engineers ideas and solutions. Not willing to advance company to stay current with changing industry, would rather put a band aid on a broken machines then buy new/replace with more efficient . Expects engineers to work 60-80 hour weeks, salaried for 40 No allowed time off from November through December

Pros

Barnes has amazing benefits; extensive paid vacation (More than I'd ever seen), great insurance options, the works. The facility is also very clean, cleaner than other aerospace locations I've worked.

Cons

The culture is abysmal. The management fails to follow through on the most simple of tasks, to the extent that the facility recently failed an audit from Rolls Royce for the exact same major findings (traceability) as the year before, losing their certification and forcing a stop to production. Furthermore, a quick working pace seems almost discouraged. The struggle to stay occupied at work was daily, causing people to stretch a 30 minute process over the span of hours to avoid management, whose sole purpose was ensuring the production floor -looked- like it was functioning.

Pros

You get paid regularly and the place has potential.

Cons

Used to be a really cool place to work. Really positive atmosphere and everyone used to help each other out, everyone loved coming to work. The management has really turned things down hill the last 3 years. It is constantly a blame game and someone else's fault, they don't care about there employees anymore and it shows with everyones attitudes. People can't get out fast enough. Hostile Environment.
