Dairy Farmers of America – Consistently understaffed, budgets being spent on equipment and machines that end up not being used enough to justify the cost. Poor leadership shown by the shift supervisors, punishing staff for sitting too much and removing chairs/raising desks despite our working 12-hour shifts. Needs improvement | Comparably

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

Everybody gets along for the most part, which is important at a job.

What makes you most happy at work?

The people. When everything is running smooth and on time, the job is enjoyable

What are some of the best things about your team?

My coworkers are friendly, fun to work with, and are dedicated and committed individuals. We work well together.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Stop rushing so much. I understand supply chain issues in light of the world's current circumstances, but the stress from the higher ups rolls down hill. If we are behind on production, stop rushing CIPs, blends, first-off samples etc. because you are ultimately making it worse and easier for error.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Good employer match for the 401k, but there needs to be more transparancy and involvement in where the money goes. Peoples' retirements are being funneled into index funds that are about to crash hard, harder than '08. Most people don't understand the financial crisis we are just now starting to see

What did you like most about the interview process?

The honesty. I was forewarned that the job was not for everybody, and often new hires quit within the first few months. They said there was a learning curve, but once you got settled things would be alright. They were true to their word for the most part and I appreciate it
