I liked the people, the harsh labor conditions in the bakery made me drop my normal exercise routines so I could rest.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

That much of the bureaucracy is automated, allowing for benefits to be rolled out relatively well according to their listed timeline.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Routine maintenance of work machines is lacking, leading to higher risk of injury and ensuring repetitive stress injuries for long-term employees. Mismanagement meant limited reviews of working conditions, worsening the impact of the low maintenance.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

They were helpful, often willing to help if around. But they were poor gauges on what they should or shouldn't do, often piling on the work for those around them to do after they have left for the day.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Work is physically grueling in the bakery, before me they went through 6 bakers in about as many months, and now have gone through another 2 in the last 2 months. The work is brutal, and despite good routines it will wear on your knees and back.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

While friendly, they were not apt to do their share of work (never got my first month review and so never triggered my third month or sixth month, raises appear to be automated based on hours worked and last review). They were often unwilling to make time to do their work.
