Lots of communication with co-workers
Strong emphasis on product development
Significant amount of training opportunities
Too many meetings
Major cultural and values driven

I worked in Accounts Payable for outside markets of Herman Miller. Loved the people I worked with and the job security was great. The pay was not good at all. Hard work with little compensation.

productive always something new to learn. postion was always progressing forward. Management always wanting to help further your success in your position. Co-workers always helpful and willing to lend advise and support when needed. Hardest part of the job - leaving it, most enjoyable part - everything.

I enjoy working for Herman Miller. I enjoy the job that I do. Not very good at moving people up in rankings.

I worked from home for the last 13 years. I learned to be self suffient and could reach out to my co-workers if needed.

one of my first real jobs i learned a lot a bout warehouses and how to operate a forklift and a f1 scanner how to load an unload trucks

Meet with client and provide with work solutions
Various system furniture
Hard work in a fun environment
Experienced dedicated co-workers

Herman miller makes office furniture.They make everything from chairs to filing cabinets to work stations.

Working on an assembly line with anywhere from 2-8 people which we rotate positions every hour. Fast pace, repetitive work with a great team to work with. I learned how to assemble office furniture and cubicle walls. Managers are strict where it is needed, if you are a hard working line they tend to not give you a hard time. I worked 8-10 hrs/day 5 – more... days/week. each day consists of two 20 minute breaks. Also learned how to run the assembly line which I would say was the hardest part of the job. That job consisted of retrieving the parts that was on the schedule for that day, organizing how it will go down the line, labeling the parts and making boxes all at a fast pace so the line does not run out of work. I really enjoyed all of the people I work with. It was very laid back and we all worked really well together. My one complaint would be that they revolve their holidays off around 1st/2nd shift and sometimes forget about 3rd so our date that we would have off would end up being the day before the holiday, not the actual holiday and we would have to come in the night of. Our hours there are 1st shift 6am-2pm, 2nd shift 2pm-10pm, and 3rd shift 10pm-6am. – less

A easy routine , and always predictiable.
Co-workers were very friendly , hardest part of job was lifting some of the tables weight to inspect , a little challenge but could do it .

no job security time of service means nothing. but it was a good work experience while working there learned allot about shipping

I love the company bonuses and the pot luck days when co-workers brought in home cooked meals. I like working with power tools.

I worked a 8 hour shift on the production line producing and packaging parts for office cubicles. It was fast paced and quality and quantity controlled.

I provided high quality executive-level administrative support to the Vice President of Information Technology (IT) and to their first Chief Information Officer.
- Appointed to the ISO9000 department team due to my focus on detail.
- Provided monthly documentation on copier usage resulting in a cost savings of over $32,000.
- Chosen by Lotus (a vendor) – more... to be the liaison for 25 Executive As istants to troubleshoot and problem-solve an application; our goal was to determine how to make it user-friendly; the vendor accepted 98% of our suggestions for their rollout of Lotus Notes. – less

A typical day at Herman Miller consisted of supplying the Intent line (router) with melamine blanks in sequence corresponding to the line schedule. I learned quite a bit in my short time there about furniture manufacturing. My co-workers in general were friendly and helpful. The hardest part of my employment was the physical labor of moving melamine – more... blanks into sequence. – less
