Pros

Decent pay and decent coworkers

Cons

Geokon used to be a much different place it realy was a place where you felt like a part of the family. Old owner stepped down and he really made this place what it is I cant speak highly enough of the guy. new owners are making it a more corporate top heavy workplace they seem to be super interested in squeezing the people on the floor. No one seems to do the same with management, good luck getting ahold of hr, I honestly cannot think of a time the hr person has worked a full week in the office and good luck emailing her she get back to you in a day or 2 if she feels like it. Not sure what most of the managers do here besides leave early and come in late again bosses dont seem to care or notice but they sure know if you were 5 min late from brake. we have a 3rd hr person who seems to just talk football in the halls but we would get in trouble if we did the same. for real dont know what he does. the new owners have worked here forever and made sure noone else will be able to move up like they did. between inflation and no profit sharing im making less money every year here i wonder if thats true for management. im looking for new work and i wouldnt recommend geokon over any of the other manufacturing in the area, they all the same now.

Pros

Good benefits (other than pay) Friendly coworkers Semi-remote options for salary (office) employees Overtime options for hourly (manufacturing) employees New administrative office building Renovations to the manufacturing space

Cons

Outdated processes, software, systems, and equipment Boys Club Mentality: promotions seldom awarded to woman SIGNIFICANT gender pay gap Low salaries compared to industry standards New hires earn more than established employees Raises/promotions seldom awarded past small C.O.L. increase Raises not merit based: everyone gets the same small percentage regardless of annual performance rating Small business culture is dwindling to corporate mentality Employees attitudes are growing more negative Not transparent with salary ranges across the company HR staff is not friendly, helpful, or clear with policies Management is inaccessible and often unavailable Suggestions for improvement are often ignored or overlooked Resistance to change with technology improvements Inefficient processes to avoid upsetting long-term employees Only managers have decent pay, everyone else needs side jobs to afford to live in the area We make less each year since yearly C.O.L. doesn't match inflation and bonus' are dwindling, and merit based raises/promotions are seldom awarded
