Solar Stik Reviews

Executive team members look down on floor-level staff during meetings, make us clean our own toilets and barely give any raises. I got 25 cents after working there for 3 years. These people literally do not care about my mental health, they only care about the dollar.

Unfortunately, towards the end of my employment there were a number of pretty big shifts in the company. We moved locations, and changed management pretty significantly. The company could feel a little...cultish, with lots of focus on "being like a family" etc, but that really ramped up after the move. While the company always had problems with production workers being under-paid and under-appreciated, these problems escalated a lot after the move, and caused a lot of friction between people production, engineering and management. This made it a pretty tense environment sometimes, as everyone knew each other by name (all the way up to the CEO, CFO etc.) but still had resentment over not being valued. Poor management decisions by the new production manager led to delays in manufacturing and shipping, while hard-working and experienced employees were passed over for promotion in favor of outside workers who were not as qualified. Overall, in my time there, I saw about 12-15 people quit (we never truly found out why some of the company's best employees had been fired), which is pretty comprehensive considering the company was only ever about 40-50 employees. On occasion, we were told people had been fired for not meeting "personal growth benchmarks" which is little funny because opportunities for advancement/learning and skill growth were few and far between.
