Pros
Good customer base, decent ERP system, most employees good to work with, decent benefits.
Cons
High turnover and the resulting chaos when a brain-drain happens; counting hourly employees, it was 74%. Every office or professional-level employee departure seemed to effect only reactive moves. Where was the strategy to stop the bleeding? Poor communication from upper management, particularly on the plant consolidation in 2017. Metalex culture seems to have been, and was being, developed over time from the cumulative traits of the employees, and not as designed or defined by upper management or reflecting the stated corporate culture. There was no apparent short-term or long-term strategy, other than to make the monthly and quarterly numbers. Unless it wasn't communicated...strategy deployment, what's that?
