- Former Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
Great place to store your broke down vehicles. Not much work plenty of empty parking for employees broken vehicles. Shop even gets opened up on nights and weekends for personal vehicle repair.
Cons
Pay is extremely low. Management makes it a goal to downplay your worth in order to keep paying you way below actual market value. They state things like (do more with less) and (Cummins wants top tier technicians but we only want to pay mid tier salaries) when the pay is far below mid tier. Benefits suck. Good luck with retirement they will find a reason to lay you off when you age.

Not many pros in this place

Work 6-7 days a week for low pay Between them not wanting to really hire anyone to them finding lame excuses for terminating employees we got and keeping the ones they should terminate or the ones that don't show up just cause their family or friend works higher up to protect them The absolute thing that PMO was getting written up for something that I did when I was off Then the blind finger pointing

No life balance constantly working
Dec 28, 2022 - Machine Operator in North Charleston, SCRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Pay was decent but it went up a lot more since I was there Insurance is good if you get the co pay selection if you go to the doctor's a lot They have a HSA, FSA 401k
Cons
They make you work 6 to 7 days and can be awhile just to have one day off or so. They won't hire a weekend shift so that the full times won't be burnt out from working so much and all the forced mandatory over time HR, management, and the operations guy wouldn't listen to people's suggestions of a solution to people being burnt out from working so much yet they all work 5 days a week and get more time off The insurance for the deductibles are really high to meet if you do need to meet a deductible They force you to work on other lines besides your own and all the lines run differently and aren't exactly the same The lead decides how you day is going to go every day because they decide what machine to put you on They don't really want to train everyone for every machine etc only certain people sometimes They look for reasons to make you lose your $500 sign on bonus One example being is that you have to be back on the floor within your alotted break time so that makes you have to leave your breaks early instead of the exact time or they will try to write you up for it which they don't explain that in orientation or at all They will low ball you in pay over people who don't even have experience or if you do have experience
