This company has a lot of managment problems they tend to think of only how to make more profit at the expense of thier employess. by doing this they have created a very bad moral problem at all thier plants. the magament has shown now signs that they know what is going on in the company plants only that they make a profit no matter what the cost. until this attitude changes i think the company will be had press to make it in this market they are forcing alot of experencice people out and replaceing them with people who know nothing about the basic busness that they are in.
