Careers

“My past career was very rocky. Coming to Atkore gave me a lot of relief because of the job stability.  No one wants to worry about losing their job!  Working here you will find wonderful co-workers and a lot of job opportunity and growth.  Atkore has opened a new career path for me at which I did not know about.  It is exciting to know I am building a career in Tool and Die which I came to really enjoy.  This is all owed to working here at Atkore. 

Akore’s Engagement and Alignment process promotes a workplace that encourages employees to strive for consistent results. It is nice working for a company that encourages greatness and rewards that as well.”

I have been with Atkore just shy of 25 years.  A lot has changed over the years but the constant is I still enjoy what I do. The introduction of Engagement and Alignment has improved our communication and resulted in a much more involved team.  The Atkore values promote involvement and accountability.  Employees have a voice that matters and that creates an environment that is exciting to be a part of.  Our team understands where we are and what our vision is through our Strategic Deployment Process.  The strive for excellence attitude is felt throughout the company!

I started my career with Atkore in October of 2015. Aside from the great people that I work with, the company is excellent to work for. From day one, it was clear that all employees were engaged and aligned with the company’s mission, objectives and values. All the departments work together and with combined efforts, help drive the success of the company. Atkore has great benefits including a tuition reimbursement program that I have been fortunate enough to take advantage of. I will be earning my MBA in a few months. This has been both a personal and professional goal that I would not have been able to achieve without Atkore. Others who have taken advantage of the school have gone from a mechanic to an engineer and from an engineer to VP. I look forward to the continued success of the company and am happy to be a contributor.

As a new hire I really appreciate the process and effort that goes into the Immersion and On-boarding Plan and the emphasis on understanding the ATKORE core values and way of doing business. The corporate caring for the individual is sincere and gives one a sense of community, that everyone wants you to succeed, which in turn means that ATKORE is succeeding. The core values of ATKORE; Accountability, Teamwork, Integrity, Respect, and Excellence are actual values that ATKORE enables and promotes; I could not have asked for a better opportunity.

“Before Atkore I changed jobs a lot.  Atkore has taught me the importance of teamwork and commitment.  My supervisor provides me the training and growth opportunity to advance in my role.  I started out as a Material Handler I, and now a year and a half later I am an Operator II.   I enjoy working with co-workers and management team that respect one another.  I am excited to see what the future holds for me and for Atkore.”

I’ve worked for this company for 33 years, and since Atkore acquired Heritage Plastics in 2014, there have been many positive changes to the facility in Louisville, KY. When previous owners of the company were in charge, they didn’t care about recognizing or rewarding employees, but that certainly changed when Atkore took over. In May of 2018, I was presented a Spot Award during the Executive Leadership Team visit to our plant, and I’ve never felt more proud of the job I do than at that moment. I was able to shake hands with the President/CEO and many other ELT members, and my colleagues were there as well, to support the reward I was being given by the company. The recognition that is received within Atkore, for a job well done, is outstanding, and it seems to only get better each year. I wake up in the morning, ready to come to work because I honestly enjoy what I do, and now I feel that my work makes a difference at the Louisville plant.
