“I came here to gain experience and knowledge in my career of choice and I’m glad I did.  I have learned so much more than I did before, and I turned out to love working here.  I have great co-workers and a great team!”

“I started at American Woods 10 and ½ years ago as a scuffer for the finish paint department.  I was interested in spraying and wanted to learn it.  American Woods saw my ambition to learn then and they continue to see great potential in my work to this day.  So why American Woods? Opportunity, Advancement, Growth, Employee Investment, Acknowledgement, and beneficial skills.  I chose American Woods because American Woods chose me!”

“ Most Jobs, when you have to get up and go to work and dread it, that’s not a good feeling knowing you don’t like the company you work for.  Something is wrong there.  For me?  I don’t have that problem.  I like my job at Woods.  I’ve learned a lot across many different departments.  When someone was needed in another department I was called on all the time.  That says a lot to me about the company I work for.  That tells me I’m very appreciated in my work and efforts.  It keeps me coming back.  It’s a good work environment if you’re willing to learn.  They are willing to teach and it will take you a long way in the company and you’ll see growth financially, which everyone likes to see!”

“I started out as a kitchen cabinet builder, then became a cabinet installer, and now a quality control manager.  Its very interesting to see the final products.  Great Management to work with over all these years.  Wouldn’t want to work anywhere else.”

“My time at American Woods has been a journey.  From starting in drawer boxes, to then moving to mid pack and shipping where I currently work.  Each role has helped me develop a better understanding of what American Woods is about and has set me up for long term success.”

“I’ve been here over 35 years because I’ve realized this place can be whatever you make it!”
