Klein Tools reviews

Like any smaller, family owned business there are concerns with family members being groomed for positions they may not be qualified for, hey if you have problems with that I guess you should move on - it is "their" company after all. Lots of focus on moving the company's manufacturing plants to a central campus operation in Texas has caused a considerable amount of disruption and dissatisfaction among all employees, salaried more so than hourly. The move to Texas appears to be a good long term business strategy, however there are a lot of short term pains that must be endured and a lot good, key employees are either bailing or getting left out in the process. Like a lot of smaller companies the health benefits have taken a hit with rising out of pocket expenses and co-pay increases.

Upper management (corner office). Totally lost site of the day to day operations/relations because of the total obsession with the new facility in Mansfield, Texas. Also, a few executives there adding absolutely zero value to the day to day.
