What is the best part of working at the company?
Hostile work environment upper management is clueless. Safety program is even worse. If you want to work for a company that consistently sets low standards and then fails to achieve them then this is the place for you. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They over work all employees expecting them to do more with less.  When safety issues are brought to the table most often times they are ignored.  Sure people wear eye protection and ear pro but catastrophic plant safety systems are ignored if they cost to much to repair so they allow continued exposure to the employees 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The morale is the lowest I have ever seen and the leadership is far worse. Mismanagement of information and daily routine is laughable at best. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
12 hour days in a furnace during the summer months.  Freezing temps with no cold weather uniforms / ARC flash rated in the winter months specifically for maintenance personnel

A typical day at work involved making production goals and hoping to get enough work done to not have as much to complete the following day. I learned how to using a scanning gun for checking inventory, printing out labels for specific parts of our bills of laden (BOL), use an electric bander for strapping down product to pallets, use an air-powered staple gun, use a plastic wrapping machine, and drive a forklift (truck, stand up, and walk-behind). Most days, having certain coworkers around to help let the load off got us through the day because sometimes, the work was tough to complete in a timely manner with machine breakdowns, lack of supplies, etc. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the attitudes of specific employees and management lies to employees from time to time. The most enjoyable part of the job was getting paid weekly and having the weekends off.

Consistant lack of communication.  Constant bombardment for 'world class' without the tools for achievement.  The never ending battle for control between management.  Lack of compassion for the floor workers.  Safety is improving.  Complete disregard of employee genius.  

Process, process, process!!!  Let me tell you, without people, your process is nothing.  In a world where businesses are changing to better suit their employess, fiberon is slacking.  They have the 'we can replace you attitude' and they stand by their word.  For the most part I enjoyed my 6 years at fiberon.  Some of the people were okay, but mainly I loved my actually job, but management had to find a way to mess that up as well.  Good luck to everyone that still works there, your gonna need it.

As for you fiberon.....Treat your employees like your best customers and you might can turn things around.

Become a place of value, not just in money.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Fiberon to date.  Building a product that is so nice almost completely from recycled material is very rewarding.  The site is undergoing a Lean transformation so there are lots of opportunity for those who want to engage and make positive changes every day.  Is it perfect, absolutely not but if you are willing to contribute you can be part of some really great projects.

The work environment is not for everyone.  Most of the jobs are in outdoor type conditions and many of the jobs are physically demanding.  If you like the outdoors and want to work in area that helps you to stay fit this is a good match.

Great place to work, good people who are willing to make positive changes, and building an environmentally responsible product with almost no waste are all positives in my book.

I started as a temp stacker and in a few months I was hired on and promoted to quality auditor and given a substantial raise.  A couple months later I was promoted to field service technician and traveled the country fixing an issue with boards that had been used on decks at customers homes.  I left hastily and I regret that decision so badly!  I would go back in a heartbeat to do quality or something equivalent again!  If you will go to work here and do your job and stay out of petty employee drama you can move up, get raises, and have fun working!  It all depends on you if you enjoy your job at Fineron or not!  There are some bad apples as far as management but there is always someone else you can deal with in most cases so!  Just go in, work hard, and keep the drama at zero and you will have no problems and you will be appreciated!

started a position but right off the bat there seemed like a lot of negativity in the work place. money was decent for a night job and there are benefits but its one of those jobs that squeezes everything from its employees. overall they just did not seem to have it together as a company most likely stemming from upper management as basic management was easy to deal with. did not stay because it was a bit more than i wanted to deal with and a number of possible safety hazards. still have not been paid by them as well but figure i will give them one more week to be nice as its approaching a month.

Fiberon is a ok place to work, but the favoritism is very unfair, and apparent. There is no managerial structure, though there is a supervisor, they lack the leadership skills to efficiently and effectively run the plant. Another thing that was displeasing was though you sign a contract to perform a specific job duty once the supervisor finds out that you can do other jobs, such as forklift operation, or machine operations, they expect you to do your job for which you were hired, and any other though other people are doing just the job they were hired to do and they receive the same pay as you, though you do more.

I worked at Fiberon full-time
Fiberon is creating a thoughtful home - one that takes care of the people inside it and the world around it.

Mission: Fiberon's mission is to create a home that’s thoughtful - one that takes care of itself and the people inside it.

The whole time I was there I kept hearing the term world class this place is far from world class, benefits and pay are competitive but that’s only positive thing going there, management is never on same page, communication to employees who need to know information is terrible, people operating machinery with no training and management is aware this is an accident waiting to happen, more people working in front office than in manufacturing, management more worried about getting bonuses than making the place better for the employees. I would not recommend anyone trying to work here it’s ok for a few months but nothing ever changes

I've been with Fiberon for 6 years now and enjoying it now more than ever. I've been in the maintenance department, in production, and now work as an engineer.  Although the challenges in each of those roles has been different, I've always enjoyed working on new things in each role and day to day. 

We were purchased by a new company last year and I can see all the things I would have changed slowly moving in the right direction. There can definitely be some long days but there's also a good understanding of work/life balance. 

There are stressful days, but most of the time I look forward to work.
