no place for anything else, if so, workers will need to catch up, so there is a sense of catching up on work everyday. workers that have been there for a long time feel some sort of entitlement over the rest. company's culture is corrosive
Making money is the companies #1 priority. Valuing employees is far down the list.
No accountability throughout the company and upper management has no clue what their employees need to become successful company. I feel like the company is on its deathbed and desperate to remain profitable

Terrible culture and lack of communication.
Leadership not prepared to manage employees.
Old employees never really improving the company.
Lack of resources, processes and systems.
Big disarray within processes and common sense.

Pros
A few friendly co-workers
Cons
Toxic culture
With a lack of any career growth opportunities, it was certainly not a great company to work for, although the people over there are great. Good company to start working for before transitioning out.

There is always change
lots of layoff due to changing market
they own a lot of properties throughout the world, no chance to visit and no training on what each plant does and how it ties back to the main business group

The management tried to sugar coat the role by having staff bbq, Christmas party with giveaways when your name is drawn.
Not enough done for day to day assistance with the work load. Pile on the work and hope that it gets done.
Poor raises of 2% each year isn't enough when staff are going above and beyond to get the work done.

It has been a great experience working at array. Different department offers, the diversity of people I work with and along side , gives me the opportunity to know their cultures.
Not an ideal place to work. Too many VPs and consultants vs regular workers who do the day to day grunt work. way understaffed for the amount of work to be done.
I got hired here through a placement agency. I started the day after. I wasn’t given any training just job shadowed another senior employee. I was in assembly and found the workers stressed but were willing to help. They push things so working there is fast paced.You will be spending the whole shift on your feet. When I say it’s hot working in the warehouse it causes fainting even if you replenish yourself with water breaks. This happened twice to me and I bnever went back. I will discourage all people from going there.
PRO: Cafeteria is fantastic. Home cooked food daily by an amazing and friendly group of ladies, at subsidized pricing. Cleaning staff also very friendly and respectful with a smile at all times.
PRO: Global company. If you get to deal directly with other locations you can learn a lot.
PRO: People on the teams you work with are mostly great, and will help you when needed. Everyone in the shop will smile and say hello to you at all times.
CON: No leadership to pull all the great people and requirements together. So many silos and lack of connection. Company has forward thinking ideas but lacks clear direction and the right people in the right positions to conduct proper and respectful leadership to the teams. The good Managers are gone, except a couple remaining. The company has many great employees who want to do the right thing and make it work, but they're on islands with no one to pull it all together. Not a lot of listening.

Leaders are not trained to manage people and resources.
Managers expect you to work overtime.
No work-life balance.
Finance department is really stressful.
Company is owned by a private equity from NY that is firing people, cutting investments and hiring good employees.
Terrible systems and processes.

Cons: Very stressfull environment; supervisors and managers disrespect you; below industry standard wages; no learning; terrible processes because they don't get feedback from employees, most people at work are very depressed and unhappy; unrealistic expectations, minimal growth and learning for engineers
Pros: Good health benefit
Pros: Good health benefit
People are great. Most of the workers are semi literate. Since it is a mass manufacturing company, schedule is hectic. Production Planning used to be poor. Not a bad place to start but not a great place to work for a long time.
It was good working with Array Marketing as the journey was full of learning new things daily. Friendly environment, much experienced colleagues and good place to grow your own experience.
Stay away from this toxic place if you value your sanity and overall health. Toxic from top to bottom , employees are simple numbers and you are as good as you last sale.
Pros
none
Cons
everything
Array Marketing is a company that will allow you to develop organizational skills and work under excruciating pressure. It will also allow you to learn the bases of how a Canadian Company works. However, I would not recommend anyone to stay in this company for a long time. If you have no previous work experience, then this is a good company to start. Nevertheless, as an engineering company, this organization is lacking a lot. They don't follow any industry standards, there are no proper records of previous projects, no provider catalogs, and no hardware library. For that and many more reasons, I will recommend anyone looking to develop a career as an engineer to look at this company as the gateway to the industry, but not as a viable option to stay for long.
Pros
Relatively basic and simple engineering projects, hardworking people, good first work experience
Cons
Long hours, miscommunication, difficult to find the correct information, inefficient processes
Many different opportunities, different departments to work in. A good culture of 'getting the job done'. Good eats at the workplace cafeteria as well.
No enough space to sit in the cafeteria, like other places here more desis but still raci...lots Srilankan, phelipino and guju Canadian.
Lucky if you can keep your job in summer.
POOR HVAC.
don't leave your other job to come here. Come here if no job.

Pros
Always hiring
Cons
high turn over due to poor working condition
Nice co-workers.
Promotion through tenure, not talent and there are zero advancements at this company. you will always be at the position your were when you started.
‘Boys club’ practices
Do not listen or entertain any change from lower staff members.
Pay raises are based on inflation so people don’t go the extra mile because it’s not recognized.
It’s a job not a career
