Fike Corporation

What is the best part of working at the company?
The Company it's self is a good company. The problem with Fike is that it's the "good ole boy" system. It's who you kiss butt too, is how you get ahead. They don't promote the best or brightest. They promote people they are buddies with.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They are so behind the times in their manufacturing concept. They have such a high profit margin that they don't pay attention to how bad their manufacturing production and waste are.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It is good if you kiss the right person butt to move up. Being good at the job means nothing.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Laid back compared to public run companies.

My main job there was blasting tanks before they are sent to paint i was really slow at the job mainly because i kept getting injured or over strained myself with 1000 lbs tanks every now and then the supervisor would see me struggle and either give  me a tip to make it easier for someone as small as me or give me a hand before i started the job i knew for a fact i was going to have a plethora of problems. With the help of my supervisors and the co-workers i was able to enjoy my job and work with a smile on my face

I did a lot of random jobs for the logistics department at the beginning of the summer then worked on filling orders for the shipping department. I learned a lot about how receiving and shipping departments operate on a day to day basis. The management in my department was very helpful and easy-going but kept us on task. I liked how I could do a lot of the work on my own but people were always available to help me if I needed it.

Not the same place it used to be. Recognition program is just a popularity contest. More of a high school like environment. Management is very ungrateful and HR is very rude, demeaning and unprofessional. Only thing they are worried about is their profits. 

Was a great place several years ago, something happened.  Anymore this pandemic has been a blessing for this company, take all perks away and give nothing.  Salary gets the wonderful "work from home" excuse to take care of personal needs.  Great place for people out of high school,  not long time employees.  

I tried for years to get on here.  Finally did and stayed for a long time.  Retired from here and overall I give Fike a 3.  I used to feel included, important and that I mattered.  Used to feel like it was a family oriented company.  Upon leaving it was a different place.  The concept Mr Fike had in mind and Les had in mind were solid.  It’s not a family oriented company anymore.  Fike is on a path to become a big corporation and have lost site of “the little guy”.  Will always miss the place I so loved working for.

I really like working at Fike. I would say the largest room for improvement is in equity, particularly for women, and management. It seems there is a "path of least resistance" approach, and it leads to less qualified individuals leading teams.

There are some offices that are more difficult to work with as well. Being a global company, priorities are quite mixed and can sometimes create efficiency issues in completing projects.

What is the best part of working at the company?
People-family oriented.  They understand if you need time for family. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Waiting on Getting a promotion.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very mellow and health conscious
