      Good stable company with strong ethical standards but with poor compensation and vertical mobility.

      Pros

      HTS is a global company with a good reputation. They are a stable employer that will not lay off workers unless absolutely necessary. They are good to employees, core and temps alike in their treatment. They work to accommodate their workers as much as possible while keeping their business goals. They provide good benefits to core employees.

      Cons

      Their wages tend to be low. Also, they take way too long to promote temps to core. We lost a lot of good employees because they got tired of waiting for core position so they can get the insurance and benefit package they do not enjoy with the temp service.

      Pros

      Decent wages and benefits but that'd about it for the factory in Berea KY. Nothing else good about this place at all besides your coworkers

      Cons

      Although I said wages were decent above, the only way it pays off is because youll.be working 11-12 hour days 6-7 days a week so youll.be getting tons of overtime not too mention that IF you work 6 days straight you are paid double time for Sunday. That's no BS either cause you can ask any employee that works there on the floor and they'll tell you the truth. No air-conditioning out on the floor and it is stifling to say the least. Management does not care about you or your well being, they'll act like they do to pacify you but once they walk away from you they forget your conversation or do the opposite of what they just told you. They say to "Stop Call And Wait" if something goes wrong, if you do they chew your a s s out and threaten your job, alls they care about there are numbers, they'd rather you to keep running even if it's scrap just so they have high production numbers. Overall unless you don't care about any of the above then by all means apply and good luck cause your gonna need it

      Hitachi being a traditional Japanese company was very conservative for many years.

      Cons

      Hitachi as a Japanese company still they are hiring mainly Japanese
