What do you like about working at Composite Technology?

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"It's a fast paced environment, with lots of overtime. You might consider requesting additional compensation for the extra hours you are almost certainly going to be working as a Manager. Be prepared to nudge management into justifying the monthly production quotas that are imposed from corporate."

What don't you like about working at Composite Technology?

"Production schedules are extremely burdensome and almost impossible to attain without lots of overtime and weekend work. This negatively impacts employee morale and quality, which can be a struggle to control."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Try to justify the production quotas more meaningfully, based upon the non-unionized manpower loading, young employee skill set and equipment capability in Texas, and less on previously attained production levels in the old unionized Connecticut facility with experienced manpower and Engineering authority allowing short-cuts and hidden efficiencies in production methods. It's not apples and apples. We need a more even playing field to work on, to make the work environment less frenetic."
