HORIZON HOBBY LOGO MANUALS

Manufacturers change products between sample and production, which can make manuals incorrect. Use numbers or letters in illustration callouts to avoid touching illustrations for translation. German, French and Italian text takes more space than English. Secure all your work, including your work station, every time you step away.ĭon't take it personally, it's just business. Keep notes about your decisions, why and where. That said, the company is great and if you are young, without - more. This will of course happen with any company, however, it is definitely demoralizing to see co-workers and yourself lose out on a position that you would be great in because it was never actually offered. Lastly, there is an impression of mild nepotism happening at the top and mid-level positions. Even with a decades worth of experience, you will be expected to start on the first step of the ladder and attempt to claw your way to the top with $.15 to $.30 raises every year for 5 years before you have a chance to the next step. Movement within the company is difficult as the workforce is fairly young and retention at the mid-level positions is higher than at other companies. You can work there and pay all your bills as long as you don't mind living paycheck to paycheck and living in a low-grade rental. This causes uncertainty in the lower ranks.Īdditionally, there are major pay issues against the local cost of living. Often there are whispers of layoffs with no announcement of what is going on or why people that have been working with the company for years suddenly do not have a job.

At least in my department, my manager has been there to listen and adapt my schedule based on my needs saying things like 'life happens' and 'focus on yourself and your family, we'll take care of things here.'Īll that aside, there are some things that happen that frustrate many at the bottom. Even starting as an entry-level, I felt like I was part of a great business. Overall, Horizon has been the best company I have worked for.
