Just be a decent machine shop and stop forcing your ridiculous belief system on everyone. This place is a joke. - Anonymous employee Kimray Employee Review

Pros

Keurig machines everywhere! The employee that gave me my campus tour during orientation encouraged me to bring my loaded weapon to work and leave it in my locked car since I have my concealed carry license! Yay!

Cons

Can you say "Good 'ol boy system?" It seems like everyone is related to everyone and/or goes to church with someone there... ATTENTION TO ANYONE THINKING ABOUT WORKING THERE - Orientation will be several hours of religion class and a little gay-seeming guy try to tell you that you are wrong if you believe in Evolution. It is even a condition of employment to not accept it. It is all laughable... I am sure if they knew I was Atheist they would have called Security to escort me out... They believe telling you a story about some fairy godfather is more important than discussing employment aspects that people really care about. This place reminds me of The Firm.... stay far, far away...

Pros

Great company with great people who are ready to teach their interns tons of skills they can use full-time, along with projects that can really make a difference in the company after their time as an intern.

Cons

It was a bit hard to stay busy as an intern at times, especially after done with a big project and looking for something new to do.

Pros

You get to work, I guess.

Cons

Disrespectful of employee's time, terrible training protocol, no real support system for technician and warehouse staff, seniority applies in all instances. HR is widely uncaring about any staff issues. Refusal to buy new tools or fix old ones, taking months or years to replace equipment. No clothing or boot allowance after first uniform, even in a dirty, dangerous environment. Warehouse and shop are not air conditioned, even in 110+ Houston heat, and little is done to improve the situation. Company is on its way to going belly-up, currently cutting staff. No opportunity for advancement, you are hired to do one thing and one thing only. Pay rise does not match rate of inflation and currently pays below industry standard for jobs worked.
