Winix operations review

Pros

Excellent place if you would want tons of experience (regardless of how long you've been in the industry), great process and learn how to manage workers a lot better.

Cons

MANAGMENT: the manager believes he knows everything based on having a college degree and will not be open to suggestions. they only go through staffing for all positions besides admin positions. Therefore, all your team will be temps, the manager believes these guys/girls are temps for a reason and will not acknowledge any of them. Really bad work environment was there for 5 months and went through around 50-100 workers because of this (this is a small operation/8-man crew at most). One day the manager will tell you he wants the operations done a certain way then the next he will tell you that it is wrong and wants it done another way. As a lead you oversee the entire facility, making sure all orders are pulled right and your material handlers are on task along with making sure the building is secured at all times and much more. this is a doable job if you have the right personnel, it becomes impossible when the manager fires your whole crew, and you have to re-train an entire new crew every week. along with the manager requesting to watch employees taking out the trash "in case they are messing around" instead of doing important task. you are not just a lead there you are the manager of the floor along with the material handler/ forklift driver/ reach truck driver because no one wants to work for this guy. The pay is well but trust me it is not worth putting up with the Ego of this guy.

Your time and feelings don't make money

Pros

Bonuses are decent, and the people are nice. My coworkers were friendly and helpful, but the CEO of the US office was self-entitled.

Cons

CEO and Korean based leadership do not care about their employees. I would like to express that they will get rid of you without hesitation. I watched them treat employees like servants. Forcing engineers to furnish an apartment for the CEO, drive the CEO around town when he visited, at one point the US CEO and Korean owner forced a manager to watch their kids, drive their wives around downtown Chicago to shop, and then had the audacity to complain that the engineer didn't complete their work for the day. I would not recommend any position at this company. The fact that they haven't gone out of business is a mystery to me. They do not value employees or their time. You will be seen as disposable on day one.
