Failure analysis
Great environment and great people
Lack of opportunity to grow
Manager
Some great people. Reasonable salary and benefits for regular staff.
Short term thinking, indecision, changing plans. Attrition of experienced people. Insufficient resources to perform effectively. Unclear future.
Corporate manager
To me, the best reasons to work for Celestica is, it's sheer size and global presence.
To me, some of the downsides of working at Celestica are: It is a culture of "Swim or Sink like a stone", do not expect anyone to show you anything, even you boss, he is most probably not qualified or a new hire too. You have to figure out on your own as how to get the job done. Also, there seems to be too much dysfunctional politics at all organizational levels. Finally, Celestica has the worst Work Life balance.
Corporate it
it's people are very savvy technically. mostly very collaborative in teams. Management needs leadership lessons however/
grew too fast and lose focus
Engineer
Culture is generally collegial. Large company with headquarters in Toronto. The manufacturing industry is an interesting one and the company has an interesting history with IBM.
Company has been challenged in a competitive industry. There have been layoffs over the past few years and employee morale is low. Work life balance is generally ok here.
It director
You don't get bored in Celestica. Due to the type of business, the work offers large varieties of challenges. Also the market is very competitive which is pushing the management into never ending Lean activities. Managers trained by this culture will definitely be a great asset to to other employers.
Clestica suffers from from what I call IBM syndrom. The corporate which suppose to set directions is very often wrong and and unaware of the reality in the manufacturing sites. This leads to unnecessary expenditures and conflicts.
Operations engineer specialist
If you can't find anything else. Also gain good knowledge about SMT manufacturing. Although there are long hours you will gain some valuable knowledge regarding the world of contract manufactuing. It is definately a very fast paced environment and if you like to get your hand dirty and work long hours than this may be some good training.
Long hours, poor management, no opportunity. Also there seems to be no concern for the welfare of the employees. Althought, contract manufacturing is a rough business and very competitive, but that is no reason to keep the employees in dark and unhappy.
Operations technical support
The work place is clean and safe. There are many different types of job functions available if you're a regular employee. The benefits are competetive among other manufacturing companies, even though many "old-timers" still complain about it.
They are letting many skilled employees go. Celestica does not care much about retaining skilled employees any more. "Anyone is replace-able." The product quality sufferes every time there are a new batch of temporary employees. Also, it seems like the cooprate office is trying to move business away its Toronto site even thought this site has the best quality records. It is a great place to work if you just want a job and not a career.
Anonymous employee
Celestica is an organisation that provides lots of career advancement opportunities if you are able to perform well
Compensation package can be further improved
Facilities technician
People are generally friendly and relaxed
Base pay is low and increases are hard to achieve
