The most useful review selected by IndeedI loved working there. Love that I had work and life balance. Few associates make feel young workers like they are not needed there. Mostly associates are friendly, but due to some -environment becomes toxic once you get permanent

Great improvements
Associate (Current Employee) - Bradford West Gwillimbury, ON - 27 November 2022
I've been with kumi for many years and the culture standard has improved in spades. It feels like my job is important and the company wants me to succeed. The plant is cleaner than most and safety is important. The technology is up to date and improving all the time. It is very hot in the summer but water and breaks are supplied .
Pros
Clean safe work environment
Cons
Very hot in summer

Continually Improving
Production Worker (Current Employee) - Brantford, ON - 29 October 2022
KCC has really turned things around in the last two years. New leadership and culture focus has kept me at this place. Even during really hard times, they find ways to keep us employed, provide raises, and even plan fun activities. They even just gave all 200+ employees hot dinners just to show appreciation for our commitment.
Pros
Committed to people and improvements
Cons
Nothing

Fast paced facility with highest technology equipment
Maintenance Technician (Current Employee) - Bradford West Gwillimbury, ON - 8 August 2022
Kumi is a great place to work. The team is helpful and friendly and want you to get the most out of your time there. They train very well and Management is very supporting. The culture initiatives are awesome. It's a great place to come to work daily. At times it is very hot on the manufacturing floor in the summer. Kumi takes this seriously and provides heat stress breaks and ice and water. I am enjoying my experience here and have had the opportunity to advance my career.
Pros
Culture, Management strength, teamwork
Cons
Hot in the summer months

As a forklift operator you have a heavy load no free time and a lot of eyes watching on you, Boss is always breathing down your throat talking behind your back and there’s no support

Nice to go to work every day
Office Staff (Current Employee) - Bradford, ON - 29 October 2021

Pros
The people

Bad management
Automotive Assembly Operator (Former Employee) - Bradford, ON - 26 February 2020
Bad management and workers are under paid the people you work with are very nice but for what you do in there it’s not worth the pay and no chance of advancing

Job position
Forklift Operator (Current Employee) - Bradford West Gwillimbury, ON - 30 September 2019
The wages aren't that good and the culture is very stressful. It's a very fast based company as it is in the auto industry. I find the supervisors aren't very help full or understanding toward your interests.i find a lot of people talk behind your back and then try to be your friend even though you know what is going on which makes it very difficult to do your job and makes it very stressful.
Pros
Close to home
Cons
Money and advancememt

Good staff wasn't much room to expand within the company, little pay increase. A lot of overtime was available.very fast-paced, they don't like to acknowledge any issues until something occurs then they deal with the situation.
Pros
lots over overtime available, decent hours of operation
Cons
hard labour, lots of man handling the parts

Poor communication, no job security and run like a highschool
Automotive Assembler (Current Employee) - Bradford, ON - 13 September 2018
Don’t try to impress because your efforts will be waisted. You will end up doing it all the time and never feel appreciated. Don’t think you won’t get written up/suspended for because everyone who has ever worked at this company has probably got at least one write up since this work environment isn’t helpful or a team environment.
Pros
Overtime pay
Cons
Getting written up for every mistake, even in training!

Productive career
Cell Leader/ Auto Assembly (Former Employee) - Bradford, ON - 16 September 2017
Good place to work, hours of work are equal for the employees.
Three shifts- days, evenings, nights.
Must be able to handle a fast past environment with repetitive tasks.
Standing for long periods of time and good eye/hand coordination is essential.
This company provides additional courses to improve on skills and qualifications for the different areas in the plant.
Lots of opportunity to advance within the company if the interest is there.
Pros
hours of work- regular schedule
