Ride Control reviews

Pay is nothing to write home about, neither are their benefits. Mediocre at best. Why I took a job here is beyond me. Certain managers are demeaning and belittling. some are just plain LAZY!! A lot of uneducated and unqualified people in their positions which led to a very disorganized and poorly run organization. HR Department needs to be run out of town and revamped with some qualified happy HR people, as does their Materials Group. How many times does a department need to turn over before they start looking at the people running that department. Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. Not sure HR knows the meaning of their job and what an HR department is supposed to do. Good grief, get out of your office, walk around and talk to your people. SMILE! Encourage a welcoming environment. Good luck getting answers from HR too Making complaints fall on deaf ears. They don't care about their employees. I do not know first hand, as I don't have 401K, but would hear people complain about their 401K deferrals not being deposited in a timely manner and have made deposits AFTER the Federal deadline and getting excuse after excuse as to why it's not in their accounts. I do know a little bit about that, and they can be in some deep doo-doo if they keep doing that. Overall, this place sucks, but I'm not surprised. After reading the reviews on the parent company, seems those people feel the same way and actually have it worse than us. Take a job here at your own risk. Chances are you'll regret the decision and will be looking again. If you do work there, watch your back. Keep to yourself. Lots of fake people there. Be careful who you trust. So glad I got out and am in with a great company with a GREAT culture that takes pride in their employees and products!! This company is doomed to fail at the hands of MAT Holding. GM's hands are tied. Nice and smart guy, but not sure he'll be able to make a difference.

People are leaving in droves. Current building is a DUMP. 2nd floor has no windows. Atmosphere is drab and very depressing! Owned by MAT Holdings as of late 2012 - READ THEIR REVIEWS TOO because it doesn't seem like we are far off from them. I see a lot of similarities between the two organizations even before they bought us. The culture is very bad here. Bad mouthing, trash talking, cattiness (both men and women), and the negativity is constant. Giant black cloud looming overhead. Morale is vrey low!! There is no training or room for personal growth/advancement. Performance evaluations are a JOKE as well! Hopefully the new guy can see through all this BS and do something about it. Turnover is INSANE. I have never been at a company where I've seen an entire department change over 3 or 4 times since I've been there. There are so many open positions, some of the staff is overworked. Takes forever for these positons to be filled. Some departments are drowning in work. Can't seem to hire the "right" person for the jobs otherwise turnover wouldn't be so high. The HR department is terrible. Their onboarding program is pretty much non-existent and leaves new hires feeling unwelcome. No one takes the new hires around and introduces them. Takes forever to get issues resolved regarding benefits (and there are plenty of mistakes being made!!) - and you better scrutinize your paycheck and benefits EVERY time to make sure it is accurate. Very poor communication, too. It's like pulling teeth to get answers from them when something goes wrong (and things go wrong a lot). When you bring up a problem, no one acts with urgency or care. There is no accountability....just finger pointing! The culture here is HORRIBLE!!!! HR does nothing to drive a positive, employee valued culture either, which starts with the HR deparment. Several uneducated professionals (I use the word loosely) in specific areas of the organization. It is evident from all the mistakes they make and laws they are breaking. Not sure how some of these "higher-ups" get promoted without degrees.
