Don't Be Fooled By The Smoke And Mirrors Interview Process - Anonymous employee EuroKera Employee Review

After initial job offer is accepted, the new employee is wined and dined every day for two weeks, you are given the "we are one big happy family" speech during the interview and on-boarding. Afterwards, you really get a taste of what people there are really like. Some of the folks are really, really good people. Other people (unfortunately in managerial roles) could not function in other organizations, because other organizations would not foster such a rancid environment. If you can embrace the "we've always done it like that" point of view, by all means, this is the place for you. However, I learned very quickly after I started to work there although the company touts they have never had lay-offs...technically, they have never had INVOLUNTARY lay-offs. Next, they tout their retention rate. When I resigned today, I was probably the 34th +/- direct employee who had resigned in 2016. This should tell you something about the company. And the wages are about equal to compensation from the 1990s. I knew I had made a huge mistake when my neighbor asked me where I was working and I shared with him where I was so happy to be working when I initially on-boarded. He worked in HR and Training in manufacturing for 20+ years in the Fountain Inn / Simpsonville area and he quickly pointed out the poor reputation the company has in the community for high turnover. Something I certainly wish I knew prior to the "Smoke and Mirrors" show. Run, don' t walk, away from this place.
