Working at Woodward

They hire people with no experience so it gives them a good start to their machinist career.

The management pays no attention to what is going on. The only way you can grow within the company is by befriending your supervisor. If your not friends with your direct supervisor, you will never learn new machines or get promoted. We are having a 2 day mandatory shut down at the end of the year. You have 2 choices for these days...use vacation time to get paid or if you don't have any more vacation days then you will get a write up for an unauthorized absence for each day. How can you get an unauthorized absence when they are forcing you to take the days off.

401k. Weekend shift works 3 days 36 hrs and gets paid for 40 hrs

Nothing.

Fire everyone from supervisor up to president and start fresh.

Nothing

The compensation isn't bad. I have no idea how it compares to the industry.

The company is very diverse. My coworkers range from every culture you can think of including members of the LGBTQ community.

Leaving work at the end of the day.

The people I work with is all.

Absolutely pathetic management there. Low pay scales, treat employees like expendable numbers. Have so many values they want to meet but don't care about the real issues and concerns. You can even get hurt on the job and because they have their own doctors. They will do whatever possible to help the company versus the employees. You can go above and beyond for this company and the people you work with each day will see that. But when it matters like reviews and such, kind of impossible to make leading performance with management that hardly is around you to see what all you do.

Leaving at the end of my shift. There is nothing favorable about working here, but it's a pay check.

Nothing.

Hire-fire turnstile. Management is inept. More bluster than substance. No respect. No trust. Poor communication; selective hearing.

Vacation.

Nothing positive for Santa Clarita, CA

There is not enough room on this page to list the many, many negatives and you must consider how much of your life may go to waste spending unfruitful time at this company. Please read the many reviews from other folks to get some idea of these details.

Its hard to recall anything favorite during my time there but one thing for sure, they do not pay out the promised annual target "reward" to the working professionals.

Family Atmosphere

Limited movement if family members worked there

Great health benefits, food perks, bonus, activities

Team members pay Benefits

Constant part shortages

Heathcare, 401K, bonuses, paid vacation

Nothing, it’s boring silly work.

my manager doesn’t even know who I am and I worry about being fired every day. There is no sense of security and I don’t feel valued.

The work hours are good otherwise nothing else.

Very little - the poor folks working there have no ambition to do better so they stay on

We left there because of their extremely low salary tiers by which they do there annual personnel reviews

Not being there any more and also knowing that the benefits and perks are better at my new employer

It's in the aerospace industry.

Aerospace Electronics - Niles 1) Dysfunctional, poor-performing organization. 2) Management is self-aggrandizing, reactionary, and inept. 3) Heartless during a layoff. You are replaceable, and they don't care.

None.

zero nada nothing a waste of my life

seeing the greedy management keep all the bonus money every year

none none none none none none none none
