Great leadership. Great work life balance. No game playing. Great pay. Good benefits. Yearly bonus. Great opportunity for advancement. Leadership appreciates your input.

Cons

Changes are a constant. No telling what is going to happen next week. Tends to be a political environment. Customers do not like TKIT.

Wasteful Senior Management

Pros

Team members, Hybrid work, Direct manager’s flexibility and work life balance, Pay and Direct manager’s job knowledge.

Cons

The onboarding process was slow and lacked clarity, making it difficult to get up to speed efficiently Employees earned minimal vacation time, which did not improve with tenure. Direct manager and some team members often showed little patience with those who didn’t learn at their pace, creating a discouraging work environment. Upper management often made decisions that were wasteful or disconnected from day-to-day operations. There was a noticeable lack of open communication and active listening from upper leadership. Senior leadership showed limited understanding of the technology and tools required for our roles, which affected overall team performance and morale. Career development is based on who you know.

Pros

There was always consistent work with this company. The pay was decent but considering the amount of work and attention to detail that was required the pay should have been significantly higher. It was, prior to Thyssenkrupp taking the contract to take over the majority of the operations of the quality department.

Cons

As a person of color, knowing that this company was founded by a former member of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (cough, cough) never sat well with me, but what was even worse was the company culture. Every corporation loves to boast about diversity but the way coworkers acted and treated me and the company culture left me always feeling as if I didn’t belong.
