Worst job I ever had! They underpay their employees, lie to your face about how your schedule works, and treat you like garbage. I’ve never worked at a place where the supervisors were a bunch of entitled baby’s who would cry to the plant manager when they didn’t get their way. The plant manager I dealt with at my time there is the worst human being on the planet. They do tell you that you will make a good amount of money working there, that’s cause you will work there 11-12 hours a day Monday-Friday, and then come in on Saturdays for a few hours. Oh, and if they tell you that you will only work a Saturday here or there, that might be the biggest lie you’ll hear. I can count on both hands how many Saturdays I didn’t work and I wouldn’t use all my fingers. The amount of stress that job caused me, between having my job threatened on a near daily basis and the lack of backing from my own supervisors, plus spending so many hours there and not having any kind of a life, are the reasons I had to leave that place. Constantly hearing my name being called on the radio everyday and the nightmares that caused, made me contemplate legally change my name. If you want to work a ton of hours and not get paid the rate you deserve while babysitting a bunch of dudes in their 40s and 50s who call themselves supervisors, I would say this is the place to be!

It's a shame. AGI seemed like a good company. Problem is that Middle Mgmt at this office in Clearwater did not represent well at all and operated very disorganized. That, with lots of finger pointing all while "Team Work" was talked about toungue to to cheek.
If you know what you are doing and need to feel satisfaction with your work, this is not the place for you. If you do well, others take credit. When middle management make mistakes they point fingers. It is a place where having trust was lectured about being so important yet all the actions spoke for why that probably got addressed. Every day felt like nobody should be trusted and the more other employees talk you find out this was nothing new at all. Talk about their Christian values all a sham. Ask how long other enployees as Project Manager 1 have been there.....on same side of the business. The self perform side run and managed by someone else now

meat grinder. We use Coreldraw for making drawing. Just a few months ago switched to Solidworks. Actually a few favored people got to switch. The 3 day cram course at the beginning of the year was not followed up by anymore training. Coreldraw techniques/mindset has set in with all the nightmares you can imagine. That is not likely to change soon. 

They keep getting over-payed contractors in to help us. They get mad at being talked down to, (I've gotten use to it)  then soon quit. Management still wonders why even when they are told point blank with direct quotes why.  This is very hard to miss and another demoralizing thing.

If management would take the time to set up a structure that helped get work done, any structure would help, people would get projects done in a lot less time. Then some of the pressure cooker atmosphere would relax and people might actually enjoy being there. Right now I just work for a paycheck and want to get some experience on my resume.

Horrible work/life balance, they want your life to revolve around the job. Benefits are excellent, I really think some people don't appreciate it enough or don't realize how much more they offer than most companies.  Job security is very good because they can't hire people fast enough and not many people are willing to give up their lives for their work, but advancement is extremely slow and poor selections are made.  Management could use an overhaul, serious lack of leadership and zero concern for employees welfare with half of the directors while the other half are simply amazing people that you only wish you could work for. Some are trying and are actually working on themselves, but they won't seem to get rid of the bad seeds and it kills morale and causes good people to leave. Culture is awful, lots of drama and chatter. The gossip queens will stand out right away and you should stay away.

I have been a part of and witnessed multiple situations where they have shown caring and compassion to their employees;  dealing with illnesses, loss of a family member, extending paid paternity leave and just overall flexibility to those that need it due to every day life situations.  This business is one where there are high expectations in all positions from manufacturing to corporate positions. People work hard and know that the best is expected from everyone, in order to take care of clients/customers.  Career growth is supported and encouraged and clear goals are provided with mid-year and annual reviews.

They could offer to double my salary & I wouldn't go back. Could be a great place to work if an on-boarding process existed with solid, reputable, trustworthy and knowledgeable leadership/management existed on certain accounts. Cross your fingers and hope you get placed on an account with a good director. Some higher ups & HR turn a blind eye and sweep misconduct and shortcomings under the rug. High turnover.

AGI seems like a cool place to come work at the start. As a fabricator seeing the signs you’ve built is pretty neat but it doesn’t make up for the horror you experience working here. You are forced into 11-12 hours a day Monday through Friday plus half a day on Saturdays. For the work load you receive and the quality of the blueprints, the pay is disgraceful. This is not somewhere anyone should look to retire from. Use this place as a stepping stone at your own risk

the better you are at your job, the more work you have to take on, with no reward or appreciation. the worse you are at your job, you get to do nothing with no consequences. they will not stand up for you or what is right. Empty promises.

Speaking for office only.  Work isn’t challenging. Take specs from customer. Talk with vendors. Tons of redundancy and mismanagement.  Mgmt will tell you one thing and do another.  Start new projects with no idea how to run or manage. Make temps do most of the work.

Great workplace culture and the company cares about it's people. From the day I walked in the door at AGI, I felt like I belonged somewhere. Some of my closest friends 15 years later is here at the company. I have grown professionally over the years and has allowed great flexibility for my personal life.
