Pros

There are definitely opportunities for overtime, and I have a good working relationship with my co-workers. The CEO seems like a stand up guy.

Cons

The driving force seems to be cut costs, cut costs, cut costs, and sell more, sell more, sell more. Granted, that's what any business does, but it just seems to be at a much more breakneck pace here. At the end of every quarter I'm almost always told without fail that it's the most important quarter in the history of the company. It's kind of hard to get excited about work when you're just chasing a number. And it seems like someone from Johnson Controls is getting hired for a middle management position every other week. The corporate edicts with little to no knowledge of what happens on the shop floor is kind of a bummer.

Pros

Good pay , good benefits

Cons

This Tenneco is not like the other TENNECO’s around the world, this particular place can’t keep a plant manager for longer than 1-2 years, because their entire management is completely corrupt and back stabbing people, they constantly are changing upper management positions around to find unqualified and unsuccessful ways to try and make things better ?? This is a joke , they back stab their employees that are not a part of their group of corrupt people, the management makes up their own policies and completely ignore the corporate policies ?? One manager will always give more power to an employee they love, and others will throw the book at them when that manager doesn’t like the employee? These managers are a complete failure to the company and all need to be fired and new managers should take over, also this company is so dirty and disgusting, the CEO of Tenneco should come see this horrible particular facility and take action against the corrupt people
