Pros

It is extremely impressive to work for an organization that is willing to look to the future and make changes that are needed to continue to grow and develop this organization. While change is hard and sometimes a struggle, the direction and positive that is coming from all of the current change is extremely exciting. This is truly a great time to be an employee of Foremost Farms and to be part of creating the new future.

Cons

The only con is that there are some that are still struggling with the changes, but this is getting increasingly better every day.

Pros

Foremost Farms is embarking on a lot of change currently, but they are doing a great job at communicating that change to the employees within the cooperative. Change is challenging for many people. I believe that with the different change management tools that are being used, the organization will make be stronger than ever.

Cons

Though a wellness program is available, I would suggest that more be done to get employees involved in and thinking about wellness on a regular basis.

Pros

Very good starting pay and benefits. You must be able to give and take at the same time as hours can be long but the work I feel makes the time pass quickly.

Cons

Swing shift can be hard at times, forced overtime can also interfere with family plans.
