What I wish was different
I wish I’d had more people to work with and more of a team setting. My immediate supervisor was also a supervisor for pretty much half the shop, being the only actual engineer working on similar stuff to what I was doing. It was hard to get ahold of him though and there was a communication gap. Many times it felt like I was stuck in between him and the plant workers. The learning curve for industrial engineering principles was also probably more difficult at this plant, than one that was already following 5S fairly well. I believe I would’ve done a bit better with more experience, but I can’t say for sure.
