poorly managed - Technician Collins Aerospace Employee Review

Pros

The pay is fairly good.

Cons

* Benefits are garbage. High-deductible insurance; bonuses were taken away two years ago and given to upper-level executive staff: time off is minimal. * Morale is in the toilet--managers won't deal with personnel issues, they simply ignore them. Toxic personalities, or employees who do next to nothing, or the surprisingly incompetent, are allowed to run amok and there are no consequences. I was told years ago that 'you can never be fired from Collins' which has proven to be mostly correct. * Nepotism at the management level has become routine. Most companies try to prevent couples from working together, but Collins actually promotes this by hiring husband/wife pairs, even to work in the same department--stated qualifications are not a requirement. * The latest change has been the sudden announcement that breaks and lunches are restricted to very specific times, so now everyone goes at the same time. While still in the middle of a pandemic. It's so strict that breaks take importance over production operations, which makes no sense at all. There were no problems with breaks and lunches, so this is an odd decision. * Multiple mergers over the past few years have adversely affected benefits and pay raises; and managers are rotated regularly, so there's a never-ending supply of inexperienced supervisors, and naive and costly attempts to fix production issues. * In general, not recommended except as a springboard to something else.
