Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
For leaders to be more involved with associates
They will work with you on some things
Continuing to look at ways to improve.
I am moving up to be a part of the leadership team. When left in control I saw improvement. When not in control I am only able to do lower jobs due to filling in for improper staffing or attendance issues.
My boss leads with dignity and respect genuinely cares about our well being..
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
they need to change it. they were more worried about self survival then team building
They cut my job and put me in a new role with no guidance. Verbal counseling for not doing my job well and two days later gave me an outline for how to do my job. I went to HR and HR was not supportive. Spoke to an attorney and eventually got a nice severance. Supervisor no longer has subordinates
New management and more training for new hires
Having favorites and treat people equally
Leading comunication work lofe balance
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Paid time off is the best
Review from Product Dept
it started the same day you got hired.
The insurance the facilities have are the best
Stock options, compensation and bonuses
Cost of insurance is very minimal because our employer pays for much of the cost.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Leon and bobby knew I had health issues and deliberately put me in an area that would hurt me. I have witnesses who still work there that heard Leon and bobby talk about how to get rid of me. I was also forced on leave with no pay. It's been going on seven years now. Tyson screwed me over.
They need to fire all the HR Manger
Tell or remind employees about their benefits like sick time
compensation could be more competitive
That rehires get the sign on bonus too
What are some of the best things about your team?
We work well together and effectively
Review from Product Dept
they stayed out in the break room mostly
We stick together as a team no team member left behind
We help each other learn. We are constantly learning and changing and growing together at our own rate.
The expectation to be respectful was high
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
15 min breaks like everyone else in the plant.It would ease tension because some people are so tired they are dangerous & ill tempered.
Accepting amd embracing other cultures and their voices
Both Alcoholism and drug abuse is rampant within the plant coworkers are often drunk or drinking on the job making the workplace chaotic and occasionally hostile with frequent arguments between other workers. Supervisors choose favorites allowing them to get away with going home or not working.
Communication, learning English, learning to be a team player
Review from Product Dept
Stop being yea men and express the importance of actually doing maintenance work
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Team members keep you in good spirits
We are a diverse group of individuals that work well together.
The culture is one where open communication is welcomed.
Being at work on time is most important thing about the job. They really appreciate you being there.
Feeding The nation and staying safe
Review from Customer Support Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
It's still a boys club. They hide behind creating groups like Women of Technology, but don't hire permanent employees at the top. Their men to women ration at the executive level is very lopsided.
Treating their employees with respect
Keep doing all the hood things you do
Communication and respect for others
Hire more US citizens there is a communication and language problem and one of their plants in Jacksonville Florida most employees are immigrants and they do not speak English so basically you have to train yourself when you come in because the employees do not speak English 80% immigrants 10% US
Review from Product Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
The conversation was very good
The interviewer was nice short and to the point.
The promptness of the interviews.
The process did not make me feel anxious, uncomfortable, or intimidating.
I did not have to wait long and it was just a great interview
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
There are bias individuals on the hiring team so to improve I would have corporate do the hiring process or remove them and get new individuals in those positions.
Would help if they still called people instead of a email
There was a lot of things said that they were going to give us and do for us and they haven't done anything they told us
Shorter and friendly interview with less questions
Is that what is important?
Review from Operations Dept
What makes you most happy at work?
My coworkers and having fun but also getting my work done efficiently
Review from Product Dept
Providing compassionate pastoral care make me most happy.
When I get my paycheck
Feeling like I am making a difference
We are part of a team and we try to take on any obstacle that comes our way.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Family ownership is driving this company down.
You should know what's wrong by now. I guess the only way to fix it is for the white workers who quit from being mistreated get together on an attorney and let the court decide. Tyson don't care.
I think we could have worked together instead of throwing each under the bus and taking responsibility for the wrong doing
