Pros

Great Benefits- Owners are wonderful people, who really care about their people and the food they produce, unfortunately they are disconnected from the reality of who is running their company.

Cons

Overworked and underpaid. A lot of change in a very short period of time. They choose to hire from outside the company (at a much higher rate than current employees) rather than promoting from within. The best managers within the sales and marketing dept have left the company - now those areas are being managed by people who are new to the organization or people who should not be in positions managing people - they play favorites.

Pros

It's a job... they will hire people without any relevant degrees or experience for supervisory level roles.

Cons

The pay for management roles in a high cost of living area is lower than in Arkansas. They cannot attract any new talent and keep promoting the same handful of tired under-qualified, overworked, and under-educated people for higher and higher roles. It is a joke. They basically merged 2 departments and eliminated a large number of jobs last year. Everyone does 2-3 jobs now for the same pay. Oh..wait, they gave people a 50 cent per hour raise,,,what a joke! They ordered quality department leadership to all work in this small room, 4 people in one 4x10 room, in a filthy office with dirt and dust falling constantly from the ceiling vents. If anyone complained they were written up. They have not been able to hire a quality manager in a year, saying that nobody wants to work anymore. Aha...nobody wants to work at Amy's anymore for lower than market rate pay and horrible working conditions,
