Pros

Open door workplace where you have the opportunity to speak directly to executive management. State of the art manufacturing facilities with a good reputation across industry.

Cons

They set the standard for the fastener industry, but lower the bar when it comes to internal culture and overall office morale. The company is a time capsule that has no resemblance of a modern workplace. Pay, vacation, maternity/paternity leave, training, sick days, work from home options, are all things that are below average or non-existent. Turnover has been rampant for office and production employees for several years; with many vacant positions sitting open and current employees taking on the burden of their responsibilities for extended periods of time. Mediocrity reigns supreme, which means that there are employees that have been there 5-10+ years that truly do a poor job, but instead of trying to find ways to improve their daily routine, the response is “well, this is how this person operates” which means you have to do more work to ensure they do their job properly.

Lower tier OEM position

Pros

If you’re willing to work for a lower salary without bonus or commission, the company will likely hire you without automotive experience. It will give you good experience and a foot in the door at a much better company and better pay.

Cons

Old school culture, overworked, underpaid. Benefits are poor, constant travel and unpaid mandatory weekend outings for customers.

Pros

Family owned. Extremely intelligent/savvy executive management. Executive management is very approachable. Highly profitable and extremely lean. Major capital reinvestment in all facilities. Promotes from within. Opportunity to grow and learn the product and processes. Diverse customer base. Global reach. Record sales year over last. Poised for continued growth. Nearly recession proof due to controlled cost structure. Respectable profit sharing program. Relaxed office environment at Warren HQ.

Cons

Severely stringent salary structure. Lack of performance reviews and performance based wage increases. Poor benefits package. Poor human resources for employees.
