A typical day at work is repetitive work day after day making sprayers. There's never a chance to advance and the pay is the lowest in the tristate area but it's easy work. 
The supervisor on nights is more more knowledgeable, personable, and willing to teach. The day supervisor is a egomaniac and if you don't stroke his ego you're doomed. Very immature for a supervisor. If YOU turn someone in for policy infraction YOU will be retaliated against not the person who violated policy. The term work smart and not hard doesn't apply for this position. The hardest part of the job is doing other people's work as well as yours cause they are on their phones or abusing bathroom breaks. There's isn't anything enjoyable about the job. It's a job!

Be careful they will hire you and fire you at the drop of a hat. Management does not care about the employees. Dont leave a job to come to Fimco. You have no job security with this company. Management will smile to your face and stab you in the back. Your manager is offsite, this is a new position that has no defined set of job duties. You go above and beyond what is asked and be proactive to start to develop new revenue channels. Dont expect any flexibility to work on new business. Instead every minute is expected to be in at your desk. You get lunch but you had better make it short, and even think about any other breaks. It will be noted and you will be gone.

A typical day at fimco. You start your day looking over your forklift then you wait around for an order. You get interrupted a lot and they make you do other people’s work onto of yours. I learned how to drive a forklift really well. Management was alright and pretty helpful. Don’t tell anyone your business if it’s personal the coworkers tell everyone everything. They don’t give out raises they promise you a raise and eight months later they tell you you aren’t getting one. All in all there’s a few good supervisors that I actually liked. Last thing they’ll blindside you and fire for something dumb

What is the best part of working at the company?
8 hour shifts. And they do late starts for weather 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being treated like you don’t know what you’re doing and than being asked for input and being looked at like your dumb. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Can be very difficult at times 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy most the time. But that’s because I do more than just my job description.

typical work day assist of the machine work consistency reading blue prints or knocking out metal parts. I learned how to use cnc saw machines benders and grinders. Management was understanding and showed leadership. Co-workers done their jobs good and very respectful. The hardest part of the job was reading the blueprints and correctly putting info into the machine. the things things that i enjoyed was the first shift, easy work, easy to keep up, and steady work.

Not a good place to work, very strict and unforgiving management. They don’t care about the employees as people and expect you to work like a robot. Don’t bother asking questions because most of management will just get upset with you. Most 2 man jobs will only be you overworking yourself. Work life balance was nonexistent, you work 5 days a week sometimes 6 and they don’t care if you have things going on they will write you up if you don’t go in on your (day off)

The job has high security if you know what your doing. Work isn't consistent as it changes with the seasons. Keep a steady work pace and you know you'll keep your job. Leads are great and thank you for your work and see everything you do. Getting a promotion and a raise is not going to really happen here except for your first ninety(90) day raise. Flexible schedule for college students.

Season is just that . No chance of permanent employee. Just a number . Will keep you but pay you little . Look at the turn over rate . It's a revolving door saying a whole lot about a company. Fimco very disappointed in a Midwest locally owned company. They could do better .

The HR management is very deceiving. They don't make you feel like you can voice your opinion and it matter. They are very one sided to everything. My co-workers and boss were the only great part about working at fimco. The environment is hot, dirty, and it gets overwhelming. I would work there again if different hr management was effective.

Will not advance in the company pay isn’t the greatest always wanted more more more but didn’t care about quality at all night shift would always mess up and day shift would have to take up the slack then get yelled at for not getting done what they had to because you’d spend half the morning/ day fixing night shifts work
