The company has no goals, they have their Russian oligarch founder as CEO since Matt Darin left after getting sued for sexual harassment. After two years of working there, we had 4 different plant operators and a period where we didn't have one at all. We got pushed and rushed to create batch after batch, only for us to not have anything to do for months besides sanitation.
The last plant operator that is there cares more about numbers and efficiency in a space that has no consistent work rather than the morale of the employees. Before I left, he was wanting to write up people over missing a punch, which is ridiculous. After a chunk of the team was let go including all of our supervisors, he did nothing to help the team move past it. Just made us do random tasks outside of our pay, outside of our job description, some stuff that was HIS responsibility as well, just because now there was no one to tell him no. He bought food for the 4 leads one time and tried to have us hide it from the rest of the team instead of buying food for the whole team (11 people including himself). The building we were in was falling apart but some of it just wasn't his concern. We had plenty of safety concerns that was met with a condescending tone, even when it was asked. He has no care for sanitation (neither does Corporate), even passing contaminated product. None of the supervisors liked him, most of the team didn't like him. He isn't a bad person but he is a terrible boss.
When it came to me being promoted, I was promoted right after we had our third P.O. leave. I became a lead in packaging, mainly over the printers. I had to watch a team of 20 people (mostly temps) spontaneously, as well as create a system to stagnate breaks which was suddenly enforced, had to keep the same pay because I was "within my 90 days" despite being rehired from a layoff. My supervisor was out due to a severe illness so I had to collaborate with the other two supervisors when they were available to help. It was pure, disorganized chaos. For an international company, this entire past year alone was horribly embarrassing. I had commitment and passion for what I did, and this place did not share that, nor did they care. The money is all they care about.
From Corporate Leadership down to the individual plants, AVOID working for Curaleaf. They are the Walmart of the Marijuana industry.
