FM Global Reviews

Cons

I wish I joined sooner. The company recognizes that there is a need to evolve. It is happening - with caution - to protect the heritage. Completely understandable.

Cons

Hardly any room for career growth at lower level admin type positions. You will not get promoted unless you take the initiative yourself and hope someone retires from the position you want. People stay in the same position for years.

Cons

No career advancement. It will take endless time to move into next level into the career. No proper communication from HR people after resign from the job. Management is micro level management. No work from home and no telecommuting options in work.

Cons

Advancement opportunities are slim, but available

Cons

Culture seems to have shifted for the negative since the departure of the former CEO.
Lack of mid level experience. Most people seem to be in the verge of retirement or fewer than 5 years experience.
Limited or slowed opportunity to advance if you are not willing to relocate multiple times.
Management can't seem find a balance between focusing on top line growth and profitability swinging back and forth each year instead of finding a middle ground.
Starting to see changes just for the sake of change with fewer guidelines on how to implement them.

Cons

Not a traditional "engineering" job, definitely will not impress your friends.

Cons

- Job titles may be underpaid when compared to other companies, but the overall compensation package is better.

Cons

Recent changes killed morale and you can feel it when you walk through the door. Not many people are happy.

Cons

Garbage management provides a soul crushing atmosphere that stifles any growth and enjoyment in people’s jobs. Management hates their employees. They have turned it into a fiefdom and everyone under them are perceived as their servants. They will talk behind their employees back and Managers will divulge personal and confidential information about their employees to other employees and managers. Why doesn’t HR do anything? Because they do it to.

What happened to this company

Laughed when reading these and then as a long time employee, felt really sad. But it's all true. Once a great company to work for, now...well, like the last two headlines, run away and what happened.

Notice the thread in all of these comments? Toxic was mentioned more times then I can count as was poor management. That about sums it up. If you're interviewing keep this in mind. It may all look nice and shiny at first, but once you're in, you realize the disease behind the curtain. If you feel you need to come, do what the smart young kids do, get your 5 years of training then leave for greener and much higher paying pastures. The culture here is so toxic they can't even get people to company sponsored/free events.
