The kind of manufacturing exposure I've been looking for - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Nulixir

Gained a lot of work experience

The work hours some times were too much

The people I worked with were not the issue, and at least the experience was not a complete waste.

- You keep your head down, show up every day, get the work done, and somehow still become completely invisible. - Month after month finishing projects on time, contributing in meetings, stepping in whenever things became chaotic - and it felt like none of it mattered or was even noticed. - Never a thank you, never even a simple "good work', just pushed straight into the next task like a machine. - Management praised other employees for work I directly helped execute, while I stood there wondering why my effort meant absolutely nothing. - The harder I tried to prove myself, the more it felt like screaming into an empty void. - It is crushing when your only value as an employee is simply showing up and staying quiet.
