    - Plant manager doesn't respect employee's outside work privacy.
    The good thingsGreat work mates (Mainly Operators)
    The challenges- Too much paper work prior starting your machine as an Operator. - Focuses on paper work rather quality - Plant manager extreme micromanagement. - Company ask for more than you applied for. - Company's lack of training on new people - Plant manager treats everyone like rubbish despite of their hard work. - Material handler and technicians relies on operators to do their job.
