    Timken Manufacturing Engineering Intern in Asheboro, NC:   (Past Employee - 2008)

    Pros

    My internship with Timken was a very good experience and I would definitely recommend it to other engineering students. The pay was was great and anything over 40 hours was time and a half overtime. Great people and an all around good place to work.

    Cons

    Getting management to make decisions can be very difficult. This can be frustrating when projects build up because implementation is so slow.

    Advice to Senior Management

    Some projects often had overunning scope which can make it very hard to to actually ever finish anything or really know what the desired final results are.
