Management Doesn't Care - Machine Operator Intertape Polymer Employee Review

Pros

The older employees have a wealth of knowledge and are willing to help, both out on the floor, and in dealing with the shady things management tries to pull.

Cons

You will never once be treated with an ounce of respect by management. You will be given minimal to no training, forced to sign off on qualifications, then be chastised for safety violations you didn't know about, or completing tasks incorrectly when you were never told how to do them in the first place. Production is all they care about - without the experienced workers running around fixing everything, this place would fall apart - and it still might. The people here worked 6 days a week with mandatory overtime and minimal COVID safety measures, and now the management is trying to take away vacations, take away sick days, and force people to work 18 hours a day. On top of that, they barely seem to be hiring anyone at all. Have multiple friends/acquaintances that applied, all with years of manufacturing experience, none received calls for interviews. Seems like they only hire people they know they can fire before their 90 day probationary period is up. The pay is decent, but with this management team, there is no future here.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits. Work/life balance.

Cons

Micromanaging. Management team has no idea what they are doing with their program. Adds pointless homework to feel good about themselves instead of letting us do our jobs. On top of that, lots of top down pressure, most likely due to private equity management up top.
