Stay Away SEHA!!!!

Pros

You get a paycheck, 10 days of PTO (for the entire year), No vacation time, health benefits are good

Cons

This is the most unethical, unorganized, and unstable place I have ever worked at. Be prepared to work six days(12 hours)/week. This is great if you are an hourly associate since you will receive overtime pay. However, if you are salary do not expect to receive overtime pay. Supervisors are paid $12.50/hr on Saturdays. That's right $12.50/hr on Saturdays. We make less than hourly associates on Saturdays. Area Leaders make more than supervisors with all the overtime we are working. Some Area Leaders base pay is over $20/hr and $30+ with overtime. Supervisors are well underpaid (salary range $49k-$70k+) when considering the amount of time spent in the plant as well as the workload. There is a major disconnect between HR and supervisors on the production floor. We are treated like incompetent children by HR. They do not take the time to establish a professional relationship with us. The communication between HR and management here is extremely poor. There is no chain of command in the way information is delivered. Quite often the associates will receive pertinent information before the supervisor. This place is also not a safe place to work at. Safety is not a top concern to upper management. The turnover rate is alarming high. We lost at least 20 salary employees within the month of July alone. I have been working at SEHA for less than six months and I am leaving as soon as I find another job.

Longest Lunch Hour

Pros

Lunch hour is flexible between 12-2 and each staff only allocated one hour but most of the assistant managers and above will leave on the dot by 12 but only return around 1.30 and start work by 2 pm. Seriously.

Cons

My first few months there was just sitting around with no work to do but my boss have the gall to ask what am i doing when he didn't assign me anything. I was left to wonder why did they hire when it doesn't seem like they needed any help. No help, no work, no direction. They want to do everything but halfway through will cancel everything and by the year end review asked you why haven't you achieve anything Big bosses barely works, they just show face then throw all the work to the low ranking staff to figure out all the hard work. Most of the them pretending to work hard but most of the time just busied themselves smoking and playing mobile games in the cafe or rooftop. Lunch hour is flexible between 12-2 and each staff only allocated one hour but most of the assistant managers and above will leave on the dot by 12 but only return around 1.30 and start work by 2 pm. Seriously. Once they throw you a project, like a rat, you need to sneak you way to find information that other BUs couldn't care less to supply or help. Their MIS division is so incompetent and practically expects you to setup your own laptop and only helps young cute employees. Corporate marketing is full of corrupt higher ups taking commissions from suppliers Retail planning and operations - keeps on sending report that nobody read and the market retail mgmt remains big problem. They know the problems but couldn't care less to fix it
