Fruit of the Loom Employer Reviews

I had applied to Fruit of the Loom as a factory worker. They at the time were looking for a nurse..They applied for my license to Ga. and hired me...A great place to work however they were having some issues in keeping the plant open...So I moved on to another job..Still have great memories of a great experience there.

Conducted time and motion study. Evaluated work methods. Created work methods and improved cycle times. Reduced idle time. Mediator between engineering department in US and Engineering Department in Mexico. Proposed ideas for reducing cycle times. Evaluated workers job performance based on method created.

Fruit of the Loom is a very traditional, old-fashioned company with strong emphasis on cost minimalization and management authority.

Good place to work. Co-workers were complacent but we got along

This was a poorly managed plant with an equally poor work environment. Most of the jobs were hourly, but the harder jobs were piece work paid. The work seemed to be aligned to fail. For each fair day of work there seemed to be four poor.

The shifts were twelve hours in length working three days one week and four the next. We had every other weekend – more... off. – less

This was factory work, the staff was great and people were nice, over all not a bad place to work and pays good.

If you like long hours and very little respect, then this is the place for you.

The above, located in Bowling Green, KY, consistently re-advertises the position. Why is this? Is it because they have multiple positions or because they don't like the applicants. This makes it hard for an entry level, with a relevant education - from more than one IT school, person to find his/her start.

I enjoy working with my co-workers. Working with people that you can trust and enjoy being around make the day go by fast.

Great Leadership Team that was very supportive. Awesome company to work for. Would recommend to anyone looking for a new career.

A typical day at work would consist of working in a fast-paced environment. During my working experience, I really learned how important safety was. The coworkers were very supportive of one anothers safety and worked together to carry out daily functions. I believe the hardest part of the job was leaving it to further my career. The most enjoyable – more... part of the job was having the opportunity to show my managers how much of a great asset I could be to the company. – less

The job an work flow was great. It was not difficult, but was up tempo.

This job is the best job I ever had. Great work environment, safety, good equipment and wise policies.
I gained a lot of experience in Photoshop and Illustrator as well as supervisor skills.
The management and co-workers are very nice people that treat me very good.
The hardest part of the job is that it is quite far from my home in Birmingham, Al.
We – more... specialize on sport balls, and during football and basketball seasons we have a lot of interesting and challenging work. – less

I enjoyed working here. I left for a better paying job. It was a great work environment.

The compensation package at Fruit is sub-par. The environment and team-feel is great, but there are definitely some individuals in the wrong position at the "top of the ladder".

Good work environment. Great management. Great benefits.

Work in a fast paced environment. I enjoy listening to new ideas and suggestions. Respect is a must in my presence.

Great place to learn and get feet wet. Had mentor that new business inside and out

Very good place to work. Really liked it there and wish it hadn't shut down. I liked every body I worked with and every body got along great. They shut down and moved it to Mexico because the labor was cheaper.
