RSS MACLIN vs. Other Companies: A Workplace Comparison

For over 75 years, RSS MACLIN has been at the forefront of the can and bottle packaging industry, providing expert training, maintenance, audits, and more. Our extensive experience has made us a trusted leader, setting a high standard for customer service and support for production lines. In this blog, we dive into what makes RSS MACLIN stand out as a great place to work.

How RSS MACLIN Stands Out

Handling Mistakes

Mistakes are a part of the business, but the reaction to those mistakes makes all the difference. At RSS MACLIN, we view mistakes as a learning experience that will strengthen the team as a whole.

• RSS MACLIN: Mistakes are battle scars and proof of experience. The team moves as a unit, reinforcing those who stumble and ensuring they rise stronger.
• Other Companies: Mistakes lead to isolation, formal reviews, or disciplinary action, weakening morale and confidence.

Workplace Culture

Workplace culture is the backbone of an organization. Employees who feel valued and connected are more likely to be satisfied with their work, and in return, contribute 100% to their team.

• RSS MACLIN: Mission-driven force where trust and unity are non-negotiable.
• Other Companies: A fragmented system where employees are just a number, left to fend for themselves.

Communication & Guidance

When there is a communication disconnect, it affects the entire team. RSS MACLIN fosters open and honest communication that benefits each person in our organization. We help each other out to provide world-class support.

• RSS MACLIN: A chain of command built on mentorship—everyone from the frontlines to leadership stands ready to advise, support, and, most importantly, GET DIRTY.
• Other Companies: A rigid hierarchy that discourages direct engagement, leaving employees hesitant to seek help.

Career Growth & Confidence

We take our employees’ career growth seriously. We encourage exploration that can expand skills, build confidence, and grow workplace satisfaction.

• RSS MACLIN: You are not confined to your lane!
• Other Companies: You are viewed through the idea of being managed not by those who truly want to lead the way.

Response to Challenges

Our team responds to challenges with a game plan. We move swiftly with accuracy and care to bring solutions to even the toughest challenges.

• RSS MACLIN: The squad mobilizes instantly. No one is left behind, and problems are tackled head-on with strategic precision.
• Other Companies: Individuals must face challenges on their own and bear the consequences of the solo outcome of the client and their employer’s company.

Employee Value & Retention

We value our employees and let them know in no uncertain terms how much their role impacts the company. Since everyone plays a key part, our employees feel connected to the team.

• RSS MACLIN: Every member is an essential part of the mission & each member has a significant impact.
• Other Companies: High turnover due to lack of camaraderie and investment in long-term success. Employees are just another number.

The Myth of Corporate Family Culture

Corporate family culture can be empty words in some organizations. At RSS MACLIN, we back up our mission with actions that demonstrate how we are truly a family.

• RSS MACLIN: Strength, loyalty, and adaptability define the company. It’s not just words—it’s a way of operating that ensures the team always has each other’s backs.
• Other Companies: Often claim to be “family-oriented,” but corporate policies lack the flexibility to truly support their workforce. Decisions prioritize policy over people, leaving employees exposed.
