Pros

Honestly, I enjoyed my time at FGF and keep in touch with a number of former employees whether in the office or on the plant floor. Coming out of school it was a fast paced and fun office experience with great potential.. The owners are great and have the right attitude. Lots of focus on personal development.

Cons

There is a huge disconnect between the middle management and the employees. Also, yelling and screaming demands does not help any situation. When I was there, I barely saw my actual management and most was governed by abusive plant managers. Turnover rate is high in the office, let alone on the floor. Many of which are let go without reason or explanation.

Pros

Great product, very employee focused company that is always improving and trying new things. It’s a super friendly and collaborative culture that hires solid people from diverse backgrounds. Above market raises if you show some initiative. There are trainings and other ways they focus on growing employees. Decent benefits and vacation days for a smaller company, including an annual bonus program for all employees. Good work life balance. I’ve never been asked to stay late or work weekends.

Cons

This is not a lot of structure and people who need daily guidance from a manager in order to do their job well won’t last long. The company grew really fast the past few years and there have been some growth-related issues, but nothing major.
