● Work-life balance
12 hour shifts 6 days a week. If you have family at home this is a terrible job for you because you will never be able to spend any time with them. If you like working your life away or are single without family at home then this job is great for you.

● Pay & benefits
For most positions the pay is pretty good, just depends on if you value money more or being able to spend time with your family.

● Job security and advancement
This company will hire and keep people as long as you have 2 feet and 2 hands that work and can show up to work and have good attendance. Company is literally desperate to find employees that will stay because pretty much nobody likes working all the hours they work(12 hour shifts, 6 days a week)

● Management
Only people that management stick up for or help out are the people that are buddy buddy with them, or if you are really good at brown nosing. If they don't like you for any reason at all, it doesn't even have to be work related, they will find any way possible to get rid of you.

● Culture
Most of the people you work with that are regular team members are really nice and fun to work with. Management is terrible

● Overall
Management is definitely not the greatest. You are expected to work 12 hour shifts 6 days a week every week. If you value money over the time you get to spend with your family then this job is for you. Also, if management or group leads don't like you for any reason at all, it doesn't even have to be work related, then they will find any way possible to try and get rid of you. RECOMMENDATION: DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY!

Managers freestyle everything. Will throw you under the bus for something you didn't even do. No critical thinking or problem solving on their part and just copy what each other say and act like it's their idea. Will not investigate a problem correctly and take each others words without a second thought. So much more to say about it. Was wrongly let go and I was a valuable employee. Did an investigation and then did a follow up one without me so I couldn't defend myself of the false allegations. Outside of that, Ok pay, easy to rise if you take initiative. Laid back even though previous part makes it seem not. Just do your job. You can even fail at it and they won't fire you. I'm just an anomaly.

In 3 years and having added several new cells, nothing has changed. It's constant work. Expected to be able to hit high numbers on machines that wont run correctly. But don't worry there's always Saturday! There is way more than enough over time and not enough home time. Cannot understand half of your co workers because they dont speak English and you cannot train them to be better. management says they care about home life and making things easier but guess what. 12 hour shifts, 6 days a week. Don't really seeing it getting any better. If you dont have a family or do not like them, this is the job for you!

The work schedule is constantly being reduced. I was supposed to work 8 hours per day but now it's constantly reduced staff with many on furlough and those of us that do work are barely getting 4 hours. At the same time management will constantly complain about the number of call-ins and the office will still have open interviews. here lately the turnover rate has been extremely high due to full-time employees getting treated so terribly. If you are unfortunate to work during the same hours as the office people then expect them to talk down to you and be condescending every single chance they get.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Enjoyed the maintenance at FTIC. Working of the Roby’s in welding was both challenging and rewarding. Sharpened my problem solving skills.

I will give them this much, the pay is good and the benefits are excellent.  The benefits package is the main reason most people stay.  The problem is it IS work.  It can be back-breaking work.  But you are paid well.  And the hours.  An 8-hour day is just a suggestion.  A typical work week is at least 60 hours with a lot of weekend work.  If you like overtime and spending all your time at work, this is the place for you.  If you value seeing your family and having a social life, you might want to rethink it.  The inside joke around here is FTIC = Family Time Isn't Coming.

Days without work are common. You can use your vacation time to get a full paycheck if you have any vacation time to use. If not you just miss out on hours/pay under what they call voluntary time off. So don’t plan on really getting a vacation. You’ll spend it to have a full paycheck just about every pay period until you run out. You will have to endure 7 days without pay in June for a shutdown too or you can use your vacation time if you have any left by then. Very hard to make it through the probation period due to low pay and lack of hours/work. 

I worked there for a few months. My manager would not train me or give me any guidance. I asked for help and was basically left to figure it out on my own. I went to senior management for help and they dismissed me. I was never trained or given any guidance. I've never felt so lost and left behind from an employer. This is not a good place to work. People are quitting within their first week here. Some people here are great to work with but they are struggling with it too.
