FLORIM USA

FUSA is largely led by Italian expatriates. In some cases that is extremely helpful because of their deep knowledge of the tile industry. In other cases the leaders are chosen simply because they are also Italian even though they have no experience in the industry. While this brings a really cool exposure to Italian culture to the workplace, it has also created a situation where Italians and Americans are treated very differently. My experience has been that Italians are generally given whatever they ask for while the same generosity isn’t offered to Americans. Again, this isn’t across the board. Some leaders are humble while others will squeeze as much money and benefits out of the company as possible and use their position (or nationality) to justify their behavior. 

Fast paced while paying attention to detail.
Learned how to use a scanner for placement and locating of product.
Don't always agree with instructions on some things but carry out the task given to completion.
Work well with others and am a team player
Hardest part of the job is not given very much training and thrown into the mix of a fast paced zone.
Most enjoyable part of the job is coming on the shift and things being chaotic and knowing that by the end of my shift my fellow associate and our goals are to have some type of order.

We used to have multitasking duties regarding the analysis of raw material, by products and finished items. We learned technical topics related with tile manufacturing, but mostly, time management skills. I used to report to a supervisor that approved our performance each month. there were performance incentives. It was a company that respected and promoted diversity and inclusion. The most challenging part was to work with colleagues as there were very different perspectives about how to solve problems at the factory.

What is the best part of working at the company?
They have a very effective team approach in all HR fields which aides in motivation of yourself and the entire team

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
There's no job security at all . Also, managers of hourly manufacturing employees are very haphazard and inconsistent.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Portray to really care about all employees but then will issue a mass layoff of 4 months without any notice.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Moderately busy and fast paced.

Most operator jobs are repetitive across departments. Learn your duties and how to manage your time and most shifts are not that bad. You do have stressful days, most of that stress coming from picking up slack from other operators/shifts; very an every man for himself attitude. Communication between operators, leads and department supervisors is not the best. It can be very physically exhausting at times, its not like your typical production lines, depending on which department you are in, you may have to shovel a lot and will definitely be lifting a lot. Pay is more competitive than it used to be and the benefits are decent.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Love running the machines and AGV

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Always lacking maintenance and technicians to repair the lines when they are down

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Constantly monitoring and walking up and down lines.

Florim is full of a family of people, most employees have been there incredibly long term which is highly encouraging. They have competitive pay, and a great benefits package, on top of the fact that it's a very happy work environment. In terms of hours, you really do have to be a morning person as it is 8-5 with an hour long lunch. 

Stay away from this place.  Managers don’t manage everyone is given a title without knowing what they should do.  Lots of drugs and drunks.  Job is doable but work environment lack training, don’t maintenance machine as they should.  Cut many corners.

Making a living for my family 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management at the time I was there 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very. Stressful work place at the time of employment  towards  the end

Set up various equipment to apply color/texture applications to raw tile, inspect quality of finished products. Clear any line jams,make minor repairs to conveyor/machinery. Keep log records of production,materials, and product changes.
This job was all around great from the co-workers to the work itself.
