Safety is #1! Great benefits! New company that is excels with new talent in management. Employees are supported with help when job task is overwhelming. Great team support. Great pay! New improvement ideas are welcome from management.

Cons

Hot at times. Overtime work can be excessive when personnel out is medical leave or vacation. Parts to make repairs can be hard to locate. No profit sharing for employees

Welcome to the team and glad to hear you're enjoying the Greenwood location. I grew up 30 minutes away in Johnston, SC, so I agree it’s a pretty great area to live and work. Thanks for ideas and we are very proud that 100% of our team across Ascend is on an annual incentive (ie bonus) plan. Keep the ideas coming! All the best, Malcolm (moneal@ascendmaterials.com, 713-315-5795 office/direct)
