Meet Brandon! Brandon has been at NW Works for two years, serving as the Productions Supervisor in NW Works’ warehouse. Being able to help adults with disabilities progress through skill building and increase their confidence to secure a job in the community is what led Brandon to NW Works. Brandon’s favorite part of his job is the community he’s created with his associates. As Production Supervisor, Brandon oversees individuals who might not have made connections if it weren’t for their occupation. Folks in the warehouse check in, develop friendships, share meals, and become a community that compliments each other to create an excellent group of workers. Community and progress are two values that Brandon mentioned many times as an important and satisfying piece of his job. These items overlap in Brandon’s role when the people NW Works serves express an interest in warehouse work. Tasks can include labeling paint cans and assembling screw kits. As with any job, individuals may come in with doubts or low confidence on their ability to do tasks. A highlight of Brandon’s job is watching these doubts transform into skill development and confidence building.

Q: What is something you think most people don’t know or understand about the Manufacturing Industry? Deontae: A lot of people tend to think that manufacturing consists of assembly lines and repetitive labor, but the truth of the matter today's manufacturing requires workers that are high skilled and have a certain level of expertise in the area they are working in. That’s why with most big-time manufacturing companies it's required for you to have a degree. Q: What is your favorite aspect of your job? Deontae: This role I am in now gives me the opportunity to connect with and lead a bunch of different personalities, I would say the best part is being able to connect and work with my crew and build a foundation and relationship off trust.

We love reading our 5 ⭐ Reviews from our customers. "Ordered burnhole rollers for site job. Wrong rollers were received. However, called the office and spoke to Jon D. later in the day where he sent out the correct order and collected the wrong order the next day. Customer service is too drawer. You can buy these items from multiple different suppliers, however what makes the difference is how the after sale customer service is dealt with. And in my opinion this was spot on. Well done Jon! 👏 To make a review on your experiance with us click 👉 https://loom.ly/EUnydLU #TeamEffort #CustomerServiceAtItsBest #TheEndGame #GreatFeedBack
