Proceed With Caution! - Anonymous employee Open Plan Systems Employee Review

The owner lacks vision, direction, and overall leadership ability. He likes to tout his own horn and attempts to impress people by pulling out wads of money in front of employees. The warehouse bathroom and break room are located in the same room without any barrier. So you will be taking your breaks and eating your lunch while your coworker uses the restroom! The majority of heaters in the warehouse are positioned above inventory, which prevents them for being turned on because it would damage the inventory-be prepared for a cold winter work environment. Furthermore, every inch of the work area is covered in black soot. If one were to work there for an extended period of time, they would probably develop respiratory issues. There is a myriad of other issues that OPS exhibits, like having an emergency exit with a padlock on it as well as having the emergency eye wash station hidden behind layers of old inventory. If you needed to utilize the eye wash station and managed to climb over the old inventory you would come to find that the eye wash station is covered in dust and grime that have visibly been accumulating for an extended period of time (most likely years). Additionally, nearly a third of the primary warehouse is filled with with decades old obsolete inventory. This posses an extreme safety risk to any worker operating in this area as the material is stacked high and has been deteriorating for years. Each pallet weighs a little over a ton and if it were to fall on someone, it would probably result in life threatening injuries or death. In the short time that I worked for the company, I saw at least 2-3 stacks fall or tip over each week. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration should make an onsite visit.
