FUTURE FOAM, INC.

I recently had the opportunity to be part of Future Foam, and I'd like to share my experience, which was overwhelmingly positive despite the short duration of my tenure owing to budget adjustments.

Collaborative Culture: One of the standout aspects of Future Foam is its collaborative environment. Colleagues are genuinely supportive and always willing to lend a hand, creating a nurturing atmosphere that fosters both personal and professional growth.

Commitment to Employee Development: The company demonstrates a strong commitment to employee development. During my tenure (which was very short), I was encouraged to participate in various training programs, which significantly enhanced my skill set. This focus on continuous learning is a testament to their dedication to empowering their staff.

Future Growth and Opportunities: Future Foam is set to grow significantly, with many different projects planned for the future. This presents a fantastic learning ground for engineers, offering exposure to new challenges and the chance to contribute meaningfully to work.

A Note on Stability: While my time at the company was shorter than anticipated due to budget adjustment of project, it's important to note that it is often part of the nature of the industry.

Final Thoughts: For those seeking a place that values learning and offers a chance to work on exciting future projects, Future Foam is an excellent choice. It’s an environment where an engineer can truly develop and thrive. My experience, although brief, was fantastic and has left a lasting positive impact.


The years I spent with this company were utterly pointless.  Walking through the doors of this place is like stepping into the twilight zone.  The better majority of employees try to do as little as possible each day, but sometimes creating more work for themselves in order to ensure the next shift has to work harder to get where they need to be for the day, literally.  You read that right, seriously.  People are buddy buddy in front of eachother and talk smack behind eachothers backs.  Management doesn't handle any issues properly if at all, leaving a 'do whatever you want' kind of vibe.  Leading back full circle to employees milking the clock.  I never had opportunity for advancement aside from the figurative carrot on a stick I was chasing after the plant manager offered something new including more money 3 different times, being adamant that i was being extended the offer prior to the openings being posted because of my performance and to come back with my answer in 48 hours.  Each and every time, I did just that, and each and every time the spot had already been filled.  I wouldn't recommend my worst enemy to this company if they offered me $1,000 cash to name a company.  Horrible experience.

My first job as a knew engineer and I was given ZERO direction besides a list of projects they wanted completed. We had weekly engineering meetings where the manager told us, "good updates" and "keep up the good work", but this was all just formality. I had know idea how to order parts for my projects or how the funding worked. Also, zero training on using the websites/online organizational systems the company uses. The only way I was learning was from my own mistakes. My advice to management is take ownership of the departments which you are responsible for and actually give guidance and talk to your employees instead of behind their backs to your upper management.

If you're not a friend or family member of the upper management, you're treated as a second class employee. Serious safety issues, ignored by management. Poor communication between sales and production creates unrealistic expectations of other departments. No accountability, no intention of fixing obvious problems. Environment is toxic both toxic and chaotic. Unpredictable overtime. 

Did more work than expected learned material quickly. Management is a joke. Safety coordinator changes OSHA regulations. Being threatened on a daily basis false accusations. Knowing they are having to work more because I am not there. Getting my work and other departments work done as well 

The hours are always longer than they state in the interview. Zero leadership from management. Unrealistic expectations, no room for advancement, no I mean NO training. Poor security and lack of support from anyone.

None of the workers who have been there care about keeping, helping, or looking out for new hires. The pay and the type of work  make working there tolerable. Though no one there wants to train new employees, so they can't keep anybody.

Personnel staff is very nice people to work with. Supervisors are very dependable easy to work with guys . The pay would be great if you could work 50 hours a week 40 hours just don’t get it
