Management puts on a good front - Processor Ascend Performance Materials Employee Review

Pros

3 year pay scale with decent pay.

Cons

There is no rotating shift work, just expect to work everyday. Management from the lowest to highest level makes it seem like they care, but will not listen to any opinions, concerns, questions etc. The facility is old and run down. My greatest memory from my career at ascend was badging out for the last time
