Alcon

My experience at Alcon was not the greatest. The salary and compensation for the duties and job responsibilities were terrible. At any given moment I would be asked to complete task that were well beyond the scope of my job requirements. Within the course of a day I would perform anywhere from 3-5 different job functions. There was very little acknowledgment as to the actual work being performed and it would be considered being flexible. Performance reviews were based off of the opinions of supervisors who had very little knowledge of the actual work involved in the daily duties of the assemblers. There were daily production goals set based upon head counts of temporary employees, and permanent Alcon employees and the goals never changed even though it was extremely understaffed. The training process for new temporary employees was very poor. The attrition rate was terribly high due to new hires not being prepared to either work 12 hr shifts or just completely untrained.

No Direct Hide. Only Contract Hired or Temporary hired. This is the true, if it is not right to submit, I can say anything else.

Management should listen to their SME’s. They waste money paying Consultants who charge bookus of money to tell them the exact same things. It’s insulting. Also, there is a lot of back-biting and political affiliations so beware of this. No time for me to take lunch. I got burnt out after one year doing the work of 3 people’s job but only one salary. I was always late to the daycare but my employers didn’t care and frequently kept me for late meetings.
