Be ready to lose your hair - Production Supervisor Seaboard Foods Employee Review

Pros

Money was pretty good for that area, yet still below what competitors are paying. Learned Spanish.

Cons

Management lacks knowledge of lean manufacturing practices. Industrial Hygiene and Safety is pretty much thrown out the window. Management from middle to top lacks basic workplace professionalism. I've never seen so much infidelity in general let alone in a workplace.....sometimes it felt like the set of a weird tv show. HR is making operations related decisions, meanwhile all operations managers care about is the almighty dollar. It doesn't matter if people are injured or if there is a fire....THE LINE MUST NOT STOP. Heaven forbid if they miss out on killing a couple hogs because someone on the floor passed out.

Pros

Some of the people are great but few and far between.

Cons

A majority of the managers are unprofessional and do not know how to manage a team. System and processes are antiquated yet they are jumping on the AI bandwagon and contractors have been let go. Benefits aren’t stellar and the pay and PTO have not kept up with industry standards. If considering for employment, beware the interview is as good as it gets.
