Timken – “Very bureaucratic, but overall good place to work

Sep 16, 2009

4.0

Timken Reliability Consultant in Canton, OH:   (Past Employee - 2009)

Pros

Leader in the industry
Family oriented environment
Work/Life Balance

Overall, it was a good experience. The company does a good job communicating with employees.

Cons

Slow moving organization
Politics plays a fairly large role in progression

The culture is "old school" in a sense that focus is on work harder and not necessarily smarter. There is a nostalgia for the old way of doing things.

Advice to Senior Management

Allow individuals to take more risks in the work environment. Keep up the good work on providing ongoing employee feedback throughout the year.
