CYCLONE MANUFACTURING INC

This is not a dream job by any means, so don't get too excited about that. You will learn A LOT about office politics, manufacturing methods, shady industry practices, and how to be/perform micromanagement at every level.

As an engineering/technologist grad I gained a more complete understanding of what's really involved in the manufacturing supply chain at every level, from material procurement to final product. 

Your pay will usually be better than minimum, but you get no benefits. 

Job is pretty much secured for as long as you can handle continuous influx of BS and job dissatisfaction.

Management is not there to "help" you, they will blame you for your inadequacies and make that very clear in front of other supervisors. If you are discovered underperforming, expect extreme scrutiny for everything. 

Not all the apples are rotten in this bucket, lots of nice, friendly folks that are in it to make a living. If you are nice to them, they will usually be nice to you. If you happen to be identifying with the female gender, and are decently good looking and well endowed, you can expect to be treated better than every single male worker/co-worker on staff. Please use this to your advantage!

That about wraps up this review, a solid 1.3 stars out of 5 and only because I learned a lot and made some really good friends there. 

*** ALWAYS WATCH YOUR BACK ***

There’s not much to say about Cyclone. Micromanaged, underpaid, disrespectful management, lack of benefits, zero incentive are just a few words which don’t even begin to describe the unprofessionalism that this company exhibits. The way management talk to other members of staff as though they are 5 year olds and the fact that management most of the time doesn’t even know what you are working on so they are constantly tripping up over their own feet. Always implementing changes to your work and then either not communicating with you or forgetting that they implemented it in the first place. Whilst working at this company it is clear to see that the majority of people working here felt the same way. I’m not sure if management is aware of this and doesn’t care to do anything about it or they are so oblivious to what’s even going on within their organization. Companies like this should not exist and likely won’t in the future, given their unprofessionalism and reduced work. This company shutting down would be the best thing for itself and for the poor workers trapped within it. 

Majority of management here comes from the same ethnicity, some managers become power obsessed and will manage using intimidation.

Be aware of factory environment, one of the plants emits dangerous fumes from their chemical tanks and management try to downplay it as something harmless. Chrome is one of the chemicals there that is dried and dust gets into the air and into ones lungs; keep in mind that chrome is a carcinogen.

Management loves to choose their favourites while putting a whole department down if you’re not the same ethnicity too. Stand up to the unfair treatment even if it means potentially losing a less than mediocre job. 

My personal experience has seen everything happen at multiple plants for years and hope that if you come for experience or even just a PR to just be aware of the unjust actions that happen here

Long work weeks, 44/week, no overtime unless asked to stay past the 44.  Pay is basic and raise is based on if you're liked or not by management otherwise good luck!  Management makes rules as they please as it's family owned and sometimes they don't even agree with each other.  They make everyone's lives miserable and see nothing wrong with their ethics.  Great for experience in how not to run a company and beginners looking for experience to put on their resumes and get out.

Cyclone Manufacturing is one of fast growing aerospace company in canada .Company has most advance CNC Machening centers .long working hours due to high valiume of parts .Management in over all is good .I am working  in Rapistan cnc shop from last 5 years which is good place to work .All floor supervisor are v good, when you work  with  experience supervisor  you  are lucky because he has lot of knowledge and machening experience  .very good place for  Fresh graduates with engneering back ground .
I came as fresh graduate with minimum knowledge   and learnd a lot about machening  and still a lot to learn.

I did not have the bad luck of working here...just the vibe I got from the interview I got was more than enough for me to make my mind rather quick.

HR pretends to be knowledgeable about machining and will ask you questions about G codes....they automatically assume you are lying about your skills. The whole process and attitude of the interview is rather rude and pointless.....coming from a person who sits behind a desk....pretending to know the trade. Everyone in authority here is connected to each other in some way out of the plant. 

Maybe if I was new to the country and had no trade experience....even then maybe!

If you don’t mind being disrespected constantly then this is the job for you. It’s sad when you just start working at a place and the employees tell you “ you probably won’t pass probation”at the time it didn’t make much sense to me but as I worked here over the years i start to realize that no one will stay here forever the way management treats them. You can put in a lot of work here and it will go unnoticed don’t waste you’re time.

Friendly environment, team work in all over the plant. The biggest problem is that
hours of work varied and most of the time not enough that makes it an unstable
job position, most of the hours goes to full-timers. That's the main reason that I am
currently looking for new opportunities that I can maintain job security and stability
with full time hours and possibly some overtimes.

Went in for an interview, she seemed so nice and guarenteed me 40 hours a week. I was, at the time, working somewhere else but she insisted I put my 2 weeks notice in and work for her so I did! The job sounded great! Enough hours to pay my bills. Everything was fine until 7 days after, the training wasn't even training, the guy training me didn't give me any advice afterwards they blame if something’s wrong.

Start 7pm by assigning to machine to me. Most of the time is one Fanuc (OKK) and a Mazak e-tower to handle.
70 percent of the time is production by the the way some time I have to prepare machine for next  operation and carry out set up. Tools check, ...
Cleaning my area and doing SPC for parts are also my responsibilities. 
I close the jobs before I leave at 7am.
