Pros

Tenneco has excellent vision, talented team members, benefits are top notch, business platform is well diversified, opportunities are available for some.

Cons

Execution of the Tenneco's vision falls apart at shop floor supervision level, promotion from with in does not take place as it should. The company has created too many special positions for executives which is not needed, by doing this it interferes with plant level teams ability to grow by learning. At the Indiana plants the quality engineers and managers are completely incompetent to do their tasks and rely on others from other departments to do the work for them. Individuals who are workhorses or individuals that have excellent work ethics will never reach higher then plant staff position and paid much lower, because the work will get done, where as the slackers are promoted over paid and given plants opportunities that are above plant staff.

Pros

Good pay , good benefits

Cons

This Tenneco is not like the other TENNECO’s around the world, this particular place can’t keep a plant manager for longer than 1-2 years, because their entire management is completely corrupt and back stabbing people, they constantly are changing upper management positions around to find unqualified and unsuccessful ways to try and make things better ?? This is a joke , they back stab their employees that are not a part of their group of corrupt people, the management makes up their own policies and completely ignore the corporate policies ?? One manager will always give more power to an employee they love, and others will throw the book at them when that manager doesn’t like the employee? These managers are a complete failure to the company and all need to be fired and new managers should take over, also this company is so dirty and disgusting, the CEO of Tenneco should come see this horrible particular facility and take action against the corrupt people
