Management

I have to admit, it's kinda nice for us to have a little organization. I like not having to look for the things I need to do my job.

But speaking of management, there is one toxic leader.
It's painfully obvious of the contempt that Doyle has for the Arlington workers.He thinks we're lazy and overpaid. He tells us we make too much money in plant meetings and to our faces on the floor. He's also insinuated that Stryker is going to shut us down because we make too much and the WTR survey results are low. That's a great way to build up morale!
I'll say this, I'll go up against any of your precious Irish machinists any day of the week.

Speaking of Irish machining....when are those $3 screws going to be finished?

I have worked with multiple plants at multiple companies. I have never seen a lack of motivation or desire to succeed like I have at Wright’s Arlington manufacturing facility. This is not just Mark’s opinion. This is the entire company’s.

Multiple: >1

Most companies have many plants. I said I worked with them, not at them. I’m in my 26th year of my career. I have seen my fair share of manufacturing facilities. Both world class and less than.

Arlington facility is comparatively mediocre. The people who work there are bottom of the barrel. No desire to even be mediocre workers, much less go above and beyond, ever. If you disagree, please provide an example. I would love to hear.

I tend to agree with you. I have been with the company for a few years now, specifically at the Arlington Facility. It astonishes me how much the workers here get away with. "Much" being not much at all. The amount of money Wright is paying these people to just walk around to each other and complain is appalling. I work in production, and I work hard, I give it my all, I am motivated by myself, to give 100% at least. Yeah, there are days I'm not feeling it, but those are few and far between. I do my job to the best of my abilities, but I look around and everyone doesn't feel this way. I'm not trying to say I am better, because there are people besides myself that do this. We put passion into our work, because it's ours, we take pride in the parts we make.
Yet, there are people that literally walk around to talk to people, "making their hourly rounds" I like to call it. These people are where it's starts to become apparent that parts of management aren't worth anything. These people should have been controlled when they started to do these things. They should've been stopped.
I worry that Stryker will see the amount of neglect that has taken place with the workforce and deem it a lost cause. I worry that everyone will be summed up together, like you so happily did, and all have the same consequences. Don't misunderstand, this isn't just with production, this all of manufacturing. Engineering, maintenance, management, inspection. Everyone at the facility.
This neglect isn't just a problem at the Arlington Facility though, it is also Cherry Road. There is simply just too many people, too much overhead for such a small company comparatively. Stryker will clean house, but like me, you shouldn't feel safe.

Do you want a pat on the back or an attaboy? Are you trying to get a trophy or something? Are you just now learning about how companies work? One day grasshopper, you will learn!

I really hate that you're having to thru this...it must really be lonely up on the pedestal you've put yourself on!
 












Everybody wanna be like me
But you can’t be like me
Everybody wanna be like M D..
Big house, expensive car and a wallet full
Everybody wanna be like me
Spent 2k last week on a bottle of wine
Everybody wanna be like me
Dropped 10k on a vacation last month
Thanks to all my haters that wanna be me
M D
