Pros

Sounds exiting on paper. “Start up with tons of opportunities”, it all a big lie

Cons

The culture is like nothing I have ever seen in my years of professional experience. Almost everyone is sick of it but can’t leave due to below avg unemployment conditions at the moment. Days seem like weeks and meetings are as pointless as bothering to come up with new ideas as they’ll most likely get shut down by directors trying to please a ceo whose digital knowledge goes as far as opening a word document—yet the company prides itself with being tech-centric and forward-looking. Upper management is ignorant, self-centered and problematic. Hard to believe how some of these people got hired. None of them get along and often talk trash behind each other’s backs. You’ll get people who look ok on paper; graduated from good schools & have decent work experience yet have no idea how to run a department or manage people, the type that will get stuck following orders for the rest of their lives and only get promoted due to their age, not personal merit or intelectual capabilities. It all stems from an inexperienced HR department and hiring committee whose #1 priority is to fill up empty seats asap instead of fully evaluating new hires, plus not getting rid of people who are detrimental to the company and the cause of most of its problems. Oh it’s also owned by JBS, yes the shady, corrupt Brazilian company. Look them up.

Pros

This is a great company with a strong team oriented culture. Management is approachable, and employees are given the tools and support needed to succeed. It’s a positive environment where hard work is recognized, and there are opportunities to develop new skills. Overall it’s a great job and a great company to work for.

Cons

Every company has minor issues, and this one is no different, but overall the positives far outweigh the small challenges.

Pros

I loved most of the people I worked with. We got free food to take home every month.

Cons

Zero leadership from the manager, although I heard she dipped without notifying her team, which is not surprising at all that that is how she would handle that situation. She knew she was getting fired so she beat them to the punch. Just absolutely toxic no help no real desire to make us want to be there. I think she tried to be nice towards the end, but it was so fake and in genuine that you couldn’t possibly take it seriously and then she catered to the one employee that caused more problems than she did. Once they get the negativity out, the rest of the team is great and if they get quality management and start paying people more than less wage they pay for the selfish expectation they expect it could be a decent place to work.
