Bait and Switch From Day One - Anonymous employee Fluidra North America Employee Review

Strong brands (Jandy, Polaris, Zodiac, etc.) widely used in pool industry Many professionals say their equipment is reliable and competitive Good technical support in some regions (depends on rep)

Salaries often below industry standard Reports of ~$30K gaps vs competitors in some roles

The 9/80 schedule (every other Friday off) was the only perk. This will no longer be offered starting next month.

- Spain has been slowly taking over business functions to save the company money. It shows the company is no longer interested in investing in its people. Fluidra only care to cut costs quickly in order to meet unrealistic financial benchmarks. - Pay is LOW. Don’t even bother applying here. The amount of work expected to get done for the low salary is just offensive. - No job security. The company’s most recent layoff was in April 2026. However, there were a couple small lesser known lay offs leading up to the big one. - Money (or the lack of it) is the main driver of Fluidra’s decision making. Teams don’t have the budget needed to function as intended. Unrealistic low budgets means dated technology/understaffed teams. Because of this, Fluidra’s decision making across all teams is reactive, not proactive. - Low merit increases and terrible raises for promotions. - Lots of turnover in leadership over the past few years. Townhall meetings are a joke. No one is buying into company. It’s going downhill fast.
