ENVE Composites

Ive been working in the bike industry for over 15 years, and i was dumb enough to accept a position building wheels, even though i knew they had an awful reputation as an employer in the local bike scene. As my title stated, it was by far the absolute worst job ive ever had, and i was a janitor for a hot minute! So, they didnt disappoint in being a terrible work experience. The schedule was never consistent, we went from 12-14 hour days at the end of the month to "make numbers", to the very next week going home after two hours because there was nothing to do. I can assure you that every person who has a hand in building the wheels doesnt ride bike, or for that matter even like bikes. Out of the four wheel builders, i was the only one to even own a bike, let alone be a dedicated lover of bicycles. I was never offered to check out a set of wheels, you dont get deals on any product, they dont recycle, most employees drive huge trucks, and would never think about commuting to work on a bike. and to top it off, all the components are made in china, despite what their logo says. And if youre used to working in an industry job where there is a "shop" atmosphere, say like happy hour on friday, some practical jokes, or a lot of nerdy bike tech discussions about new gear- dont look for that at enve. It feels like more of a "ward". Locals will know what im talking about. do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for a cool bike industry job, there are lots out there.

Wages are awful for concrete walkers. There won't be a time where you walk off the production floor and hear the carpet walkers wasting time, only for the same carpet walkers to then tell you you don't deserve a living wage much less a thriving wage, and when they do manage to give you a raise, it's paltry and management falls over themselves to pat themselves on the back. Most expensive bicycle wheels on the planet and the company hasn't made money in its entire existence and they use that as an excuse to keep your pay down. I have no idea why amer keeps the place afloat.

Typical Day: Meetings then working on projects
What I learned: Product management, development, and production
Management: very bad
Work Place Culture: for a leading cycling brand, not many of the employees actually ride, that was pretty disappointing. Very 'clicky', not very welcoming. 
Hardest part of the job: dealing with poor management
Most enjoyable part: Design high-end bike parts

Shipping department is pretty laid-back and easy going. The job is not overly demanding. Yes you have goals and deadlines but as long as you work toward those goals and are not a lazy wind jerk you should have a problem here. Upper management can be a pain at times but what job doesn't have that problem. Pay could be better but if you work hard and show a good team effort there is chance for raises and promotion.

If you like warehouse jobs, this is one of the better ones I've seen. It's not as physically demanding as many warehouse jobs out there and the management seemed decently friendly. However, it still has the usual downsides of warehouse work, such as long repetitive hours, loud noise, minor but frequent injuries, and not much human interaction.

Worked at enve for over 5 years.. terrible management decisions, pay sucks and always has/will, makes promises to employees and then never keeps them, you have to be in the ‘in crowd’ to be acknowledged or appreciated, a lot of catty gossip girls in the offices. 

Enve composites was a fun place to work and there is a lot of opportunity to learn new things and move up within the company, there are certain areas you would want to avoid working in if you have sensitive skin conditions but overall the environment was great.

pretty good place to work. Can move around to other departments when wanting to learn more. Being a smaller company can cause issue with being compensated competitively. Great people to work with, great environment . A nice work culture.

There where a few good managers that worked there. but there was a huge lack of experience and leadership for the most part. Most of the employees are under paid.

Enve Composites was a fun place to work fast paced place it was fun to work there. The only issue i had there was my supervisor at the end of my work there wasn't the nicest guy but other than that the place was well rounded and a nice work place
