Pros

I recently left Foster Farms on the best terms to go work for an engineering firm closer to home. I was sad to leave Fosters because how they care for their employees and the good culture of the people there. The company has gone to the extend to spend employee hours to work on my behave even though I am not an employee of theirs anymore. Let me explain, Foster Farms assigned a high skilled IT guys to go the my old outlook and pull all my PERSONAL phone contacts so they could send them to me at my request. I am both pleased and happy I have worked for this fine company along such great humans.

Cons

I can't think of any con.
