Be and do research before leaving another job. - Plastics Manufacturing PTA Plastics Employee Review

Lots of learning to be had in the tool room

Can get extremely busy depending on project load

Good benefits and great coworkers on the line.

Favoritism from upper management. Reviews really not given on ability, loyalty or willingness to learn. While at PTA I excelled at the job I was hired for and frequently asked for more training. I was ignored for my request and the chance for advanced training went to those employees that were close friends (you may say) of management. The out of state advanced training amounted to a mini vacation, for those chosen. Expensive meals and nights out at the bar. I had to hear this from the chosen ones when they returned. I left to find a place that respected me for my abilities, I found one. Ironically my last review stated I that I was not interested in advancing my skills. I looked at the possibility of going back to PTA but luckily changed my mind when I saw that most of the same management were still there.
