So where im at now is a multi billion dollar global conglamorate. they have access to anything they need, and the pay is excellent if you dont mind working alot of hours. there is no over time limit. Unfortunately, said company has management problems BIG TIME. there is some really good guys in those posistions but there is a very good ole boy way of doing things there and if you dont fit the mold, or try to venture outside it, your shunned. They dont seem to care about anything but the ammount of hours they turn in. the condition of the equipment shows this. day starts at 5am, and your not 'allowed' to leace until your 10 hours is up, but the vacation pay is 8 hours. (aggravating) all in all, its a great place to make alot of money very fast, i just started a few months back and in a year i would be somewhere around 110. The job is basically using mazatrol all day and making parts. very boring. no chance of getting to know cam, or growing that i can see.
company b, is the standard 10-15 million a year mom and pop shop. been in business a very long time. posistion is salary, and pays 65k (eek, as i type that) so walking away from 45k. with the potential to make much more. so they say. the shop isnt in bad shape, but its an older place, and its cluttered, not much organization or maintenance. the machines are clean though, and the employees are friendly. The boss already ordered a new workstation at my suggestion after doing some free lance work on his current machine. the position is project management, and i get to learn every thing there is from top to bottom in the plastic industry. ill be modeling with cad, probably working with cam every now and then (they have some mills but they are severly underutilized) and then your standard project managment work top to bottom. they basically want someone to come in learn quick and deal with customers and get stuff in and out of the shop.
i guess it boils down to money.. 45k is a huge hit, and im not sure that company b is somewhere id want to be long term. its not a 'bad" place... its just kinda stoneage...(maybe i can change that) the people are much nicer though, and the boss tells me the last guy in my posistion was knocking down close to 200 after 16 years..
im 28 by the way... so its not like its gonna be my last new job either way..
