It decent

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
It would be ok if it wasn't so micromanaged . The work is fairly easy but it's long. The workers are messy. The bosses on the floor are messy. I just go do my job & go home

If you know the right people, the sky is the limit

Started off great. The longer I’m there, the more I see the blatant nepotism. There is zero regard for potential unless you are in the correct family/social circle. The best way to get ahead is to quit and come back.

Pros

The work can be challenging

Productive environment

Good people/environment if you’re good back. Expected fast paced working skills. Management is alright. Over all place of work isn’t bad with decent pay. Days can be slow but when there’s work, you’re up and going.

Company Works Hard to Maintain a Family Environment

Work/Life balance is good. Values family you can tell in their bereavement policy. They work hard at creating a good culture to work in. I would recommend Milbank as a great place to work.

Union

There are always problems around employment. It comes as no surprise that Milbank is any different. But Any company willing to have a conversation with labor represented fairly deserves applause. Even if there is room for improvement.

It is ok.

It is ok. The lead is kinda sketchy. Other than that, the other people in the factory are kinda cool to be around. It has AC!! Doesn't get too hot in the summer.

Production

Working like a robot & standing back lurking over you, then walk up to you saying you need to go faster & faster. Talk to their ppl like dogs. Do not recommend at all.

Pros

No pro

Cons

Short breaks, break room 560 steps away on a 30 min lunch break that they don't pay for.

It's a job with a lot of mess and an unprofessional environment

They tell you no overtime until after your 90 day probation period then after a month it changes they will having you coming in before your 90 days is up and make you look like a like... They stick beside each other when they know something isn't accurate..

Trash place to work

Pros

It’s a job

Cons

Compensation issues and Milbank Culture is trash

Avoid like the plague!

Health Insurance is bad and too expensive. People are always getting hurt. 1 week vacation until 5th year then at 2 weeks until 10 years. Point system is not in contrat so can be changed at any time to eliminate people. Union is in management's pocket. We voted no on contract and union president insisted on a recount and intimated people in to changing their vote. Now we're stuck with a contract we didn't want for the next 4 years. Union reps are constantly getting promoted out of the union and the nepotism is ridiculous. They can't keep people and will make you do alot more than the job you signed up for.

Benefits suck and so does the union

Management lies and will try to manipulate you and the union does nothing to help you unless you are part of their clique. 1 week vacation for first 3 years then 2 until you reach 10 years. 401k not fully vested until after 5 years. Constant safety issues . People are always getting hurt and management will try to blame you. No earbuds or shorts allowed. Continuously running out of parts and asking for volunteers to go home.

Understaffed.

Under staffed and you work hard for every cent. They demand production. Also mandatory overtime on every other Friday and Saturday it’s incredibly hard on the body and makes for an extremely long week.

Lack of work makes it difficult to stay positive

Moral is very low here. The pandemic hit while I was still with the company and I feel they didn't quit care for their employees as they should have.

Good place to work

The pay is good there. The company will give you (every once in a while) 1 - 2 hours to leave early with pay depending if the union member did a good job within that month. The Benefits here suck though

Pros

pay

Cons

benefits
