Brian-Heather Harper Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Thinking about taking the transfer to lima engine. What kind of seniority does it take to hold day shift? Is there many layoffs? What's the area like around the plant? Any info anyone can give about the plant would be great! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian-Heather Harper Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 What are the shift times? Any overtime available? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-bert Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 most of the plant(non skilled) is on traditional shifts. pv6 side is 2 shifts(days and afternoons) d35 is 3 shift traditonal yeah decent amount of OT. assembly has one weekend every two or so same for pv6 in machining 3 crews(except for crank, crank is going 4 crews in nov) machining has more OT lots of good people and good jobs here, there is a few bad apples(mainly some of the idiots with big mouths that transferred down...aka trashfers) big hint, if u do come down dont be liike that. cost of living is cheaper,,,lima city kinda sucks, but outskirts is ok. and country is better.

Brian-Heather Harper Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 The posting at MAP is for 40 people, are you guys shorthanded? Where do you think we will be placed when we get there? The time frame for the transfer is between Sept-December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-bert Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 That's prolly for the 4 crews in crank. However there are spots all over.... So who knows might have a choice or be assigned by the company to an area... Machining is preferred jobs so idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
