My story at LEONI

I am Cristhian Javier Morinigo Rodriguez and have been with LEONI since June 2017. I started as a production operator, then became a production trainer, moved to a time & attendance role, and currently work as a Specialist in Payroll Management.

My career began on the production floor, where I gained hands-on experience with automotive electrical systems. Thanks to my dedication, I was promoted to trainer and later transitioned to office roles in time management and payroll.

Besides my main role, I’m a member of the CIPA Committee (Internal Commission for Accident Prevention) and the plant’s emergency brigade team, helping ensure workplace safety and to handle any accidents or issues within the plant responsibly.

This is my job

Start of the day: I wake up at 5:00 am, shower, prepare for the day, and tidy the house before leaving. 

Morning: Upon arriving at work, which is 10 minutes away, I check the day's activities, assist night shift colleagues leaving, and morning shift colleagues arriving. I process documents and communicate with state institutions. 

Lunch: I have lunch with colleagues and check in with the babysitter about my son. In the afternoon and evening, I address any errors and complete tasks related to payroll, compensation, salary control, and calculations, supporting several departments across the plant. Afterwards, I attend university.

End of the day: After returning from college, I spend quality time with my son, have a family dinner, prepare for the next day, and ensure my son is ready for bed. 

What I really like about LEONI is the abundance of opportunities it offers for professional growth. The firm's globalization and frequent visits from people worldwide provide the chance to meet individuals from diverse backgrounds.

My highlight

My most exciting moment at LEONI so far was when I was first promoted to Specialist in Time Management, and later to Specialist in Payroll Management, in recognition of my hard work over the years.

My view of LEONI as an employer

I chose LEONI as an employer because of its potential as a company, its recognition in both the national and international markets, and the growth opportunities it offers to university students like me. The culture at LEONI is very refreshing, primarily due to the work environment I experience with my colleagues, the constant training they offer us, and the various activities we engage in to maintain high levels of harmony, communication, and motivation.

LEONI in 3 words? History, Vision, Fellowship

My tips

I would recommend having discipline and perseverance above all else, being responsible and committed to the company. In this way, it's only a matter of time before LEONI recognizes you for your positive actions and offers you opportunities for growth, just as they did for me.
