Horrible Company in California
CNC Machinist (Former Employee), Vernon, CA – May 22, 2013
Pros: nothing
Cons: everything
I worked here for almost 4 years and this shop has a Union however, management makes the rules and there is no reasoning. They will make your life unbearable and make it very difficult to come to work. The pay is good but for the amount of stress that you go through, it is not worth it. Politics are horrible here and if you try and talk to Management, – more... they will not listen to you. If you go to Human Resources, they are on Management's team so they will not listen to you either. Very cut throat, workers try to set up other works so machines crash or parts are messed up and the blame is put on you. Horrible place to work. Can never keep anyone....there are some workers that have been there for many years but stay because of the $$$. – less

Friendly and Employee Centered
Customer Engineer Specialist (Current Employee), Cookeville, TN – May 8, 2013
Pros: nice cafeteria, promotes health and safety
Cons: factory environment
In a typical day, I may build new computers, upgrade older computers, monitor and verify backups, install software, assist users, instruct users in computer use. The people, including management are very friendly and understanding. The hardest part of the job is the papers. The best part of the job is the stress free environment of the facility.

Good place to work
Applications Engineer (Current Employee), Chesapeake, VA – April 11, 2013
Typical day is involves continuous movement. You won't get bored with this company. Plenty of things to do in addition to your primary job duties. You definitely need to be a multi-tasker.

Culture is nice. Everybody seems to get along well. Management works hard and looks out for their group. Co-workers like to have a good time to ease the mood.

As – more... with any other engineering career, theres a steep learning curve. – less

Great place to work as a brown-noser
Mechanic (Former Employee), TN – March 19, 2013
Pros: good breaks, stay busy
Cons: the list is too long
Very poor management, only out for themselves and their pocket. They will throw you under the bus if their job is on the line. They were barely present during work hours but always showed up at breakfast and lunch. Pay was decent but had to jump threw hoops to get a pay increase. Employees with seniority do not have the same expectations as others. – more... They basically get paid for doing very poor work. Brown-nosers were treated as royalty and were paid to do nothing. Worked with some great people who are also very unhappy. Recognition for a job well done does not exist. Work is not difficult. It is fast paced and you stay busy. Good breaks during the day. Overtime is mandatory. – less

Challenging manufacturing environment
Production Planner (Current Employee), Lynchburg, VA – March 6, 2013
Pros: 3 weeks of vacation + personal days + 11 paid holidays
Cons: healthcare and minimum advancement opportunities due to low employee turnover
Every day presents a new set of challenges that we must overcome as a team in order to build a highly engineered product while still being able to achieve 100% on-time delivery without any accidents and NEVER compromising quality.

Terrible management
IT Manager (Former Employee), Irving TX – December 19, 2012
Pros: pay is nice
Cons: everything else.
Just check the turnover in IT at the corporate offices in Dallas. Jobs are open for more than 12 months because their reputation is terrible. Management is terrible and don't know what they are doing. Major multi-million dollar project delayed because exec leadership missed major costs ($1M+) required for implementation.

Pros: pay is decent but on low end of pay scale.

Fast paced environment with a lot of learning opportunities
Mechanical Engineer (Former Employee), Tulsa, OK – October 7, 2012
Pros: people, facilities, commitment
Cons: flowserve is a multi-national fortune 500 company, change and growth can be frustratingly slow
Flowserve has given me immensely valuable experience in a very short amount of time. Individuals are challenged to excel and those that do are recognized... eventually. The talented people are their greatest asset. Career growth is abundantly available but an advancing career path can be difficult to discern. With any company of this size, there will – more... be cultural barriers, language barriers, and plenty of politics. My management team applauded unique solutions and initiative and recognizes hard work and sacrifice. Other management teams were quick to lay blame and shift responsibility. My colleagues and coworkers in the office and on the floor are talented, charismatic, ambitious and irreplaceable. – less

Put in a lot of hours but get little respect from management
ex-employee (Former Employee), Kalamazoo , Mi – October 6, 2012
Pros: decent pay/ overtime
Cons: abusive management
Non union job and they know it, dictatorship. If you don't like it there is the door mentality. Supervisors spend time covering up their indescresions. Co-workers have this click type mentality, if your in your ok if not they will stab you in the back.

Only if you are desperate
Office/Salaried (Former Employee), Lynchburg, Virginia – September 19, 2012
Pros: there are some really good people there.
Cons: very negative atmosphere.
Very negative atmosphere. Very bad management. Fear and intimidation used as management tools. Retaliation is against company policy, but many employees have been retaliated against in subtle ways that cannot be proven. Management has obvious "favorites" who can do no wrong and others who can do no right. Management shows no respect to employees.
