Pros

There was good insurance benefits

Cons

Poor office pay, lots of back stabbing, upper management controls employees with fear of firing and blame everyone but themselves. Poor upper management in the main office.

Foremost Farms Response

I appreciate the response and am saddened that this was the feeling by any employee or former employee of our organization. We work very hard to ensure that we have systems in place to reward and encourage our employees. There are times when situations may arise and there are always many reasons for that. We work hard to maintain a positive environment for all of our employees. Again, we do thank you for the response and will follow up with these concerns.
