Pros

The company offers internships and summer employment for college/high school students. The pay is on par with what their "real" employees make, and for a factory/hourly job the pay is not bad.

Cons

The work is very monotonous and while it's only temporary for a student, it's a bit disheartening to see older people (specifically POC) work their butts off to provide for their families - but I suppose that's the blue-collared/working class life.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to leave this great feedback regarding your experience with Freudenberg! We’re happy to hear that our internship program is competitive within the market. Manufacturing is a very complex process that relies on many of the jobs to be single fold. However, we are pleased that you were able to see first hand exactly what it takes to produce our product and see the process from the ground level. Thank you again and please consider returning to Freudenberg for a career in your future! Sincerely, Corporate HR Team

Pros

Stable company with broad global reach. Front office jobs not demanding, hybrid schedules and low expectations lead most to be 30-35 hr weeks.

Cons

At first this looks like a positive: you’ll notice that many employees have tenures of 15,20, 30 years. But that leads to a lot of group think and insular behaviors. They actually have a common statement among employees - “you’re not a Freudenberger unless you’ve been here 10 years.” Not exactly a welcoming statement to new employees. If you’d like to have your input and thoughts ignored for a decade, this is the place for you. Convinced they have great technologies, but in market terms, average technology at best. Horrific infighting between divisions. Management meetings resemble Klukluxclan meetings in terms of diversity. Pay scales below market, 401k match very weak
