Means developed an on-boarding program that was very helpful for me in learning the different products that are made and how they function. We also had the opportunity to tour different plants and meet new people. The people have been great to work with, are experienced and knowledgeable about the products. It is an exciting time with new programs and processes in the plant I am working. I look forward to the many opportunities and challenges ahead.

I first joined the team at Means Industries as a summer intern.  As an intern, I saw some excellent career opportunities as I was rotated through the different Means facilities and job requirements.  I was intrigued by the friendly, team oriented, atmosphere.  Once I completed my degree in mechanical engineering, I was offered the opportunity to start my career as a product applications engineer in propulsion systems. Over the last 2 years I have learned a lot about our product, and have gained valuable experience in the automotive industry. Looking back at some of the other career opportunities I could have taken, I truly believe that Means was the right decision for the start of my career.

Due to world economics, I have had an opportunity to work for a number of global companies of varying sizes in both the automotive and chemical industries with responsibilities ranging from my first as a product engineer to various developmental engineering, manufacturing engineering, program management, corporate engineering liaison, engineering management, maintenance management and capital management positions.  This career path has provided familiarity with a wide variety of global and domestic employer, customer and supplier work environments and cultures.  With this in mind, it is easy for me to say that Means is a great place to work!

I have been working for Means as a product engineer for over 5 years. I enjoy the friendly atmosphere and the collaboration between engineering, sales, marketing, and purchasing to complete important program oriented tasks. I have worked for large companies before where you are treated like a number. At Means you are valued as an individual and treated like a member of a family. As a company we are always pushing the limits of technology and coming up with innovative ideas to take the company to the next level.

Having worked at other companies, it didn’t take too long to figure out Means is a fantastic place to work. Our engineered products are regarded as world-class in our market segment. The company is of nimble size. It is large enough for every employee to have the resources needed to function at a high-level, yet small enough to get things done without a lot of bureaucracy. There is a “do-what it takes” mentality at all levels of the company, which facilitates a team effort. The company’s commitment to its people is second-to-none. Means has provided me with various development opportunities, including continuing education. Overall, choosing to work at Means has been the best decision of my professional career.
