Pros

They do some good volunteering in the community and have a decent system to help employees when in need

Cons

Poor management, treats you like a dog, makes sure to know you’re not appreciated, zero care about people who actually perform the work and praise the day workers while making your job harder and unenjoyable as possible.

Thanks for taking time to submit your review. We invest a great deal of effort and energy into training front line leaders and managers, providing tools to equip them to be good leaders. At your Pensacola site, employees at all levels are noticed and celebrated weekly as "Culture Champions" even for seemingly small contributions they make to improve things and help others. However, it sounds like you had a less than ideal experience, and we are always looking for ways to improve. If you would like to share some specifics so we can learn from the experience, please reach out to continue this conversation and we will share your feedback confidentially. Thank you. - Tony Ferguson, communications team, rfergu@ascendmaterials.com
