Brian Acton
Current Employee – been working at Oxbow Carbon
Pros – There are very high quality employees here, slackers are not tolerated. The business is complicated and offers a lot of opportunities to learn. Managers are able to manage their staff how they see fit which offers a lot of flexibility in scheduling and work distribution. Technology, software and systems are ahead of the curve and everyone is provided quality computers and any software that is needed for their job.
Cons – Limited hiring from within, the company is more likey to bring someone in from outside rather than promote from within. Some disorganization as to the direction where the company is going. Overall a good company.
Advice to Senior Management – Less knee jerk reactions to the problem of the moment and better planning would be advisable. Also, stay the course once a plan is in place.
