I machine parts for the gold mining industry, I produce parts for them as needed on all types of machinery. Everything that we do there requires extensive time management and the ability to work within very tight tolerances, with this company I've been able to fine tune this ability. Our management works very hard to keep the customer happy and also not stress the employees. They do not micro-manage us but are available when needed. Every body has their own specific job but doesn't have a problem jumping in and giving a hand when needed. There really isn't any area that I find to be " the hardest part of the job" everyone is well trained and efficient, we work together as a solid team as a company should....this is also the most enjoyable part of the job. Our company is an advocate of profit sharing and they have no problem passing the benefits on to us workers, which in turn we work harder for them.

Great place to work while the plant was operational, it seemed to fall apart when the closure happened even though we stayed opened as a sales office. We at that point lost all control of production, quality and delivery. I worked hard with all of our new suppliers, but they did not treat it as we did. I enjoyed setting up new suppliers in the US and China and being in plants with other cultures and ideas.

Very high pressure and stressful no home / work balance at all. Expectations to complete mandatory forms and not enough balance. It is expected you work weekends and evenings for no compensation.

over all good company
good working atmosphere
good peoples

I learned a lot as below.

Working with clients from around the world to ensure their equipment is working or making sure it continues to operate is what our office strives for on a daily basis.

Learned inventory, Payroll, and Management skills. An Administrator for benefits. Helped with external auditors. Did monthly reconciliations for inter company.

Not challenging not fulfilling and management has language barrier and gave false promises and only acted when it benefited them 

Terrible place to work if you want to advance in your career.

Good enjoyable place to work

A lot of diverse work and variety 

i learn't so much from this place about my profession, myself and gained a passion for the Industry

made heaps of life long friends 

heaps of overtime with good pay

Long hours but a great place to work at. I was able to set my own schedules and prioritize my work. They encouraged employees to advance their skills by providing re-imbursement for the cost of training.

Absolutely best place I've worked and wanted to retire there. Unfortunately they sold out to China and closed their doors but compensated us fairly...
