Exotic Automation & Supply

Work environment is typically relaxed. Shop is climate controlled. Limited production shop with great variety in the type of jobs done. Works mostly with urethane and rubber, with aluminum and steel mostly being inserts and molds for the urethane. Management is mostly relaxed and reasonably accommodating. Tensions occasionally with stressed management during jobs with tight deadlines. Very laid back and friendly atmosphere compared to other shops. Good benefits package for full-time employees. I enjoyed the variety of the jobs most. Great for those looking  to enter the field for the first time. You will gain very well-rounded experience.

This family-owned and operated business provides extensive learning opportunities in the pneumatic and hydraulic industry. Management and team members are exceptionally supportive and keen to help, often assigning special projects that offer visibility to executives. However, there is a lack of clear career progression, with limited promotion opportunities unless transitioning to outside sales. Additionally, the pathway to managerial roles is not well-defined. The pay is average but consistent with industry standards. Overall, it’s a good place to work.

My biggest issue was being promised different things (raises, job opportunities, etc.) That fell through time and time again. It's incredibly discouraging to keep trying your hardest (for a few years), getting good performance reviews and not much criticism then not get the raise or opportunity you were previously promised. It doesn't matter how hard you work here, there isn't much rhyme or reason to anything. You will quickly learn that from other employees that your not valued, which is unfortunate. Most employees hate their job/management which is difficult to be around every day. Then on top of that not being  appreciated/compensated. Not really worth it then, in my opinion.

The work itself is not difficult usually.  As a warehouse worker you're at the bottom of the hill when to comes to jobs needing to get done.  But like any other warehouse position it takes a major toll on the body.  

Family is a major player when it comes to working here.  I would say roughly 90% of all employees at the primary location are related to someone or good friends from outside of work that people got jobs for.  So if you're not part of the club it is very obvious. 

The company does do some cool things with its employees though like quarterly luncheons and they usually do some type of smaller catering or cook-off style events once every month or so.

This company used to be great but ever since we moved locations it has been more corporate than ever.
Poor communication is an issue as well as trying to get a raise- good luck.  Favoritism is a problem also. Its an easy company to work for but not for the long term.

One of the best outside industrial sales positions I ever held. Compared to the competition, Exotic is head and shoulders above them in professionalism and service to the customer. 

Unfortunately, a restructuring in early 1998 prematurely ended my tenure at Exotic. Would easily recommend them.

Great company to work for. I worked in the Machine Shop an good group of coworkers. Management stretched a little thin with a lot put on there plate. Overall would recommend !!! Long time workers there.

Family owned, in this case it means a bad thing. I had several paragraphs written out but decided to delete them. It's not fair to some of the good people that work there that have no other place to go, they've been demoralized enough. Do yourself a favor and avoid working here.

managers don't let you know if they are happy with your work or not and seemed un-impressed when you would ask for assistance on something you wanted to be sure was done correctly

Good place to work. Great training, Work was hard, but fun environment. I would go back if a customer service rep position was open. .................................
