I have grown the most here with the opportunities which have been given me. It is challenging work but rewarding. Friendly people, good management. Everyone wants to succeed.
Ownership realizes the value of their employees and I see examples of this on a weekly basis. They do not shy from providing the tools necessary to successfully complete your job.
The hardest part of the job (the work), is also the most rewarding part of the job when you produce a good part that stretched your abilities. I feel I could do anything now in this field without feeling intimidated by the complexity.
I have been here for more than 7 years now and I have worked closely with the design department and I have never seen or heard of any of the negative things I've read here. Granted there is a different design manager now vs when the bad comments were posted.
I did see one long term employee in design let go because honestly their work was not up to standards in my opinion. (I never trusted that person's work as I constantly found issues with it).
The benefits here are the best I've ever seen in a manufacturing facility and the out of pocket premiums are extremely good. You have two choices a standard PPO or the HSA with high deductibles (the company even donates money into your HSA if you choose that route). You get to choose which is right for you. Most places don't give you a choice.
Quarterly profit sharing (they've never missed a payout since I've been here) is a nice bit of extra cash in your pocket.
I feel very secure in my job here as AFC Tool is part of a family of companies in the same building manufacturing different products which helps spread out the risk of losing one customer and your business goes south.
For the most part my fellow employees are enjoyable people to work with. Not all have been that way and honestly, those people don't work here anymore. On a side note, I've even seen people leave, only to come back later on. That should tell you something.
I've never been yelled at or been disrespected by management (something I have witnessed at other companies).
I would not hesitate to recommend AFC Tool to anyone unless I felt they wanted to go to work just to coast.

Fc industries was a good place to work and offered
Benefits including cook-outs and 401k match. Unfortunately for me, I was hired into the afc tool
Design department. The design manager ran the design team based on who his buddies were. The guy who worked next to me had worked with the design manager at a previous company. That person would get a free pass on everything he did which included yelling expletives at his computer. The design manager would give the guy next to me plenty of work while having no problem in cutting my hours.
The fact that my fellow worker would work at the
Design manager's house after hours helped his cause as well. The newest guy hired had worked there two months less than me, but was not layed off as I was. That guy would butter up the design manager by addressing him as boss. The design manager would sit down with the newest designer and they would laugh and tell jokes like two drinking buddies. I was the odd man out and made to be the low man on the totem poll. I was never late or missed a day. I always stayed focused on the job at hand but still got layed-off in the end. I don't believe that the design manager had the best interest of the company in mind with his personnel moves. That is the way I feel about it anyway.

They'll work you until you have served your purpose and then they'll fire you or find a way to get rid of you. They don't trust their employees. They don't know how much work to expect from people and cannot help their workers refine processes.
