Company culture in manufacturing should be more than just a few ping-pong tables and happy hour Fridays. It’s the sum of thousands of little decisions made day in and day out that determine how people feel about their work, their colleagues, and themselves. It is a mix of values, beliefs, and practices that the members of an organization share.
Larry Alton, Forbes, writes, “A strong company culture attracts better talent and, more importantly, retains that talent. When people feel like they belong to an organization, they’re more likely to stick around for the long term. That means lower turnover, fewer new hires to deal with, and better chemistry among your team.”
“The best companies know they would be nothing without their talented people working together as a team while producing outstanding results for a customer. “

COMPANY CULTURE DRIVES YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE
In manufacturing, teamwork is critical. It forms a partnership mentality with the customer, and we’re not afraid to say that there will be challenges on some projects. However, if the company culture dictates, dedication and enthusiasm for solving problems will be an asset on every project, no matter if it’s challenging or not.
