DENSO Employee Reviews for Associate

Denso as a company gives great benefits, great incentives and great programs/events. Company offers full uniform, there’s a cafeteria, lounge area as well. Lots of pros when it comes to working for this company, most of the people who work there are very nice, fun to get along with, outgoing and smart but as there is pros, there’s almost as many cons. It’s not a clean facility, garbage everywhere outside, and inside (people do not clean up after themselves well, but alas that’s more an individual problem than a company issue), the air quality is poor and should be looked at yearly with the HVAC system they have in place (also should be updated). Employees had to fight for heat breaks in 40 degree weather, another con is you will also be made fun of my fellow coworkers or management, yelled at, blackmailed, etc. Coworkers constantly are fighting with each other, all of upper management shows favouritism as well and it is clear as day who receives it. One last con that I will touch on that’s extremely important, HR does NOT do their job when it comes to harassment. They treat both parties like children and gives insufficient solutions to the problems. Some specific men will talk very inappropriately to you, touch you, cat call you, follow you home, etc and HR does nothing about it. Many people who are repeat offenders have a secure job at this place, so beware.

Great pay, bad job

ASSOCIATE (Current Employee) - Guelph, ON - 8 April 2018

The company claims to care about it's employees however treat employees just like a number. They are not as ergonomically friendly as they should be considering how physically demanding the job is.

Pros

Excellent pay

Cons

Physically demanding

Good place to work

On-Call Associate (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 5 May 2016

A typical day is like any other factory position. Go to work, put on your steel toe shoes and go out on the floor and produce parts for the company you are supplying. For the most part, I really enjoyed working here, mainly because as an on-call associate the flexibility with my schedule was very helpful, especially while I was in school.

great olace to work with wonderful coworkers

Associate (Current Employee) - Guelph, ON - 19 October 2015

it was really hard for me to leave it was a great job that I truly enjoyed. management was great my co workers were the best easy to get a long with and tons of fun. The hardest part of the job for me was working afternoons I am a family man and it was hard to be away from them at night. The most enjoyable part of the job is that i was able to learn so many different jobs with denso i really enjoyed my 4 years with them
