First Brands Group, LLC

First off, this place is horrible. None of the supervisors know what they're doing. No work whatsoever. They are making us come in on our off days to do absolutely nothing but we get chastised for not doing enough work. They lie in orientation about the little to no overtime. There's mandatory overtime every single week. Point system is garbage too, 7 points every 6 months. .5 point if you are late within 2 hours or leave 2 hours early of your shift time. 1 point if you call in sick or you call in that you're not coming in for whatever reason. 2 points no call no show. If you wanna take a vacation, you get a point because you are not working and you have vacation time. If you have any emergency whatsoever and you have to call off or take a few days off, you get points. You get two 15 minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch. You don't get to eat lunch 6-6.5 hours after your shift starts depending on which department you are working in. No respect by any of the supervisors. If you want to be treated horribly and have the supervisors give you grief over not doing enough work when none is provided, this is the place to go.

Every aspect of this company is sketchy beyond belief. They do not care if you have pay or have the insurance you are paying for. They act as though they are incompetent in every layer of management and HR. 
When you question hr and ask for assistance, they take weeks to respond or ignore you all together. 
When they mess up pay they tell you it will be weeks before it can be fixed. 
They have no problem telling employees the reason they do not provide the essential needs to do the job is because they have not paid the vendor invoices. 
There is no concern for safety, moral, or anything. 
They are slowly taking away the little benefits they currently offer. They offer below the industry average, but even if they offered better pay I would not recommend this company to an enemy, let alone a friend. 


No regard for safety, layered management practices to keep you from getting the help you need that everyone in between can’t support. Operations and HR act as though their in competition to see who can throw the next person under the bus. Vendors and contractors are difficult to find because first brands doesn’t like to pay their bills. This company doesn’t have a revolving door, they took the door off the hinges because they’ve worn out. If you need a job so bad your considering applying you can pipe be better off selling feet pics on the internet. It’s safer and comes with a greater reciprocity for appreciation.

What is the best part of working at the company?
It's a complete circus, any good people wind up leaving and your stuck working with prison culture. Drug free workplace? HAH!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Culture, users, gangmembers, constant fights among co-workers big-time lack of safety enforcement most times you can't do your job because of punks. HR is terrible 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Terrible, they need a REAL drug free workplace policy as well as pre-screening individuals character before employment

The workplace culture FBG demonstrates is toxic. They talk about safety but don't have appropriate walkways for pedestrians and the forklift operators don't honk their horns.  They pay is low and they do have incentives for higher base pay however one has to jump through obstacles to get their weekly incentive. If you don't stay for mandatory overtime regardless you have an emergency, The HR in FBG will not accept that thus losing your weekly incentive. Theft among employees are common here. They employ 4 security guards but onky focus if you  have your PPE . Their work ethic is " it's not what you know. It's WHO you know". 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Friendly teamwork, nice schedule, motivation to advance, most of the time easy work

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Bad management, poor supervision, maintenance has lack of replacement parts, machines not fixed properly 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I use to keep a friendly environment but energetic to follow company's rules 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Run the production line smooth, audit the process every 30 min to minimize scrap and downtime.

Owner and corporation are corrupt to the core. They don’t pay any bills on time, electric is always being threatened to be shut off and customers, suppliers and employees are held in contempt.   No 401K match. They willing break contracts, and the corporation laughs about it. If you join here, start looking immediately, though this may be a good job if you have no respect for yourself. 

Workplace culture is out of date and extremely toxic.  Manager do not know what is going on and communication is sparse. there is no plan for advancements and Managers are more concerned with bodies in the seats instead of quality workers. 

Zero professional communications.  They treat their employees, vendors and customers with complete disrespect.  All they worry about is how to squeeze every ounce of life from their employees.  Keep ignoring paying their vendors.  They think they are too big for their customers to go elsewhere.  Stay as far away from this company as you can. 

Unless you enjoy no raises or bonuses, zero work-life balance, unnecessary stress and internal harrassment from supervisors, and policy manipulation in their favor, all while tip-toeing around in a pool of conflicts-of-interest, I would not recommend a friend to work here. As everyone says, "We don't make sense; we make oil filters".
