Engineering - Senior Engineer Bridgestone Americas Employee Review

Pros

Average salary for the area (Wilson, NC)

Cons

No concern for life-work balance. Incompetent engineering/maintenance management. Upper level management easily threatened by employees who either have superior credentials, abilities, skills or support from the production floor employees and managers. The management will fabricate and/or bend the truth to satisfy their personal agendas. There have been multiple times when the engineering/maintenance management has used the plant's safety rules/regulations to advance their personal agendas to terminate employees that they either were intimidated by, threatened by, or concerned that they knew information that would/could lead to their own dismissal. These same managers have knowingly and willfully violated those same safety rules to include LOTO to again advance their own personal agendas.

Pros

Good pay for the location. Established business in the area (over 50 years running), probably not going anywhere for a while. As long as you show up, do your work, and don't violate safety rules, you have job security. Rotating schedule allows for a lot of time off (unless you're drafted).

Cons

The environment can be very uncomfortable in some areas due to lack of climate controls. Constant back and forth between "the way it's always been done" and "let's try something new." Rotating schedule can be harsh. Sometimes it's hard to know who is in charge of something, as people get moved around a lot. Draft can eat into your time off, especially if your area is shorthanded. Communication from corporate seems to hit a wall before it reaches the technicians and operators; changes planned for years will seem abrupt to the people on the floor.
