Now owned by a German groups, called mahle. My Son was an Engeneer there. Went through all the transitions. The only plant to have a Union for Engineers and he was under the Chrysler contract.

They almost killed him,7/12 hour days. He also also on 24 hour call. When he needed a break management told him they needed him. He was one month short of the age requirement. He waited, turned in his retirement. They were quite unhappy with him. Asked him if he would come back and teach! Happily retired, he loved to make things.

My DIL’s Mother worked fot P&G. My DIL will not buy anything else.
