Rich Products – “Work/Life not a priority”

Pros

Excellent pay. Top-notch insurance. Associates always try to go the extra mile.

Cons

Management does not value work/life balance at all. They want all of your time to be spent working at Rich's and will even call you in on your vacation days. The continual pat-on-the-back management is giving themselves, with a lack of knowledge (all have been brought in from elsewhere in the company) has led to poor morale. All of the problems in this facility are due to the ineptness of managers in Quality, Planning, and Maintenance.

Advice to Senior Management

Spend time out on the floor with associates instead of spending money on off-site meetings and self-congratulatory events. Associates enjoy their job, but most are waiting out the incompetent managers in the front. Also, spend some money for replacement parts instead of wearing everything down until you lose money because it is completely broken.
