Kennametal

My typical day consists of dealing with poor management and engineers who have no idea how to communicate with the maintenance shop.  We're not allowed to have any overtime even though work is piling up and production is behind.  The equipment is old and constantly requires repairs.  
Kennametal are the new owners but so far things haven't changed for the better. I don't blame Kennametal but I feel that they are allowing the same poor management to continue making the same mistakes. 
 I enjoy working with my co-workers and I take pride in doing a good job doing quality professional work.  The hardest thing is that I feel that I'm wasting my time here and I'm poorly paid for my time and efforts. 

Very Busy dealing with many different tasks and issues in a very high paced environment.
I have learned many things about large company culture, some good, more bad in this case.
Nice people but poor or week management structure that does not deal effectively with issues.  Very little leadership.
Very non nonchalant attitude towards office protocol, work ethic and professionalism due to historically week management style. 
Feeling of accomplishment by doing my job efficiently and effectively helping other employees achieve their tasks based on my requirements to do so.  Making happy and satisfied customers as it relates to my tasks.

American based tooling manufacturer.  Top quality products.  North America's #1 choice.  Good work place environment lots of social events had a co-ed ball team that played to have fun no matter the score.  Christmas party annually.  Gifts for years service.  Good benefit plan.  
Company relocated to the USA.

I worked at Kennametal for 25 years , and I was a dedicated employee, retirement from Kennametal has been very disappointing, I’ve been waiting 2 months for a retirement package , that should be handed out the day you retire , unfortunately you are fast forgotten by this Company the day you walk out the door , it’s all about money with this company , unfortunately not your money , its sad

Welcoming and personable attitude towards new employees. Both coworkers and management approachable and willingly offer assistance/direction whenever needed. 

Days were fast paced with quality product and marketing. Easy to navigate online work portals. Managers are supportive and let you do your work. Every one is up beat. Stock could be an issue from time to time but that’s normal now a days. 

Being a part of a team. Best part. 

Great company to work for but have had some financial issues over the past 18 months causing divestitures and elimination of jobs.  Compant works very hard to provide employees with a great compensation package and benefits.

Management is very good. They walk the talk. Work culture is good. Training is great. Technology is the state of art. Very flexible. Work from home option available. People are good, collaborative. Global exposure, travel as needed. Strong focus on people development.

No comment, any information is in person, other than I gave a days work for a days pay.This is 
My position on this subjet.So it is my opinion that this question is one I would make reference
To in a verbal one on one capacidy.

I’ve worked at Kennametal for half a year. I really can’t say enough about my employer. Management in my opinion is top notch. So approachable and efficient. My coworkers are eager to help and have an amazing work ethic.
