Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at CertainTeed full-time
Pros
Lots of opportunities to get hands-on and get experiences if you're willing to put in the work. People are friendly and generally willing to help. Corporate office is beautiful and promotes work-life balance.
Cons
Many technologies are outdated. At the plant level, the cultural and mentality is still very old-school which can be frustrating for a young professional in his/her 20s. 11 vacation/sick days total for the first 5 years is not enough.
Advice to Management
Needs to take more concrete and tangible steps towards managing change. Trial and error doesn't always work for everything.

Pros
Benefits, bonus, tobacco free, live well program

Plant manager micro manages- does not empower dept managers. Does not develop those that express interest ignores their desire to grow
Advice to Management
Train plant managers to empower their people, and allow those with desire to growth help them with a growth path
