Nothing changes for the better!

Pros

Good insurance and pay for a small town.

Cons

Claim to be family company but there not. HR lies to new hires about the hours they would work. Very hot in the summer. Hours are not a guarentee in your department they vary.

Nepotism rife

Pros

Good work life balance. Time off when required. Innovative and good quality products. Good footprint in Canadian marketplace. Good marketshare.

Cons

Lots of dead weight, people who have been there way too long, sitting it out waiting for their pensions to grow fatter. Large company but run like a "mom and pop" operation. Be ready for lots and lots of micro management. Nepotism rife, lots of jobs being reserved for family connections.

Pros

Saputo as an organisation is great, but SDA is not saputo.

Cons

This is not saputo, it’s the illegitimate child of MG and WCB You could write a thesis on organisational bias after working here. The senior leadership is stacked with ex WCB employees who have a clear agenda. They business has not moved forward as one. If employees are not performing (especially those from western Vic) then there is simply a new cushy role created to hide them away. There is little to no accountability. Safety and compliance is not understood or respected. I’ve witnessed senior managers simply berate it. There has been very poor management of multiple acquisitions and the business simply can not move forward.
