Outdated plant lacking support and resources - Quality Manager Darigold Employee Review

At the plant level all departments are spread very thin and 95% of the job is firefighting. The company is trying to build a continuous improvement culture, however the lack of staffing makes it near impossible. Continuous improvement doesn't happen in a room full of managers, yet the number of hourly employees is so sparse that they realistically do not have the time to contribute, especially dealing with failing outdated equipment daily. The number of responsibilities required for the job was unrealistic in comparison to other dairy manufacturing companies that I have worked for. It was high level stress at all times and very day was a new crisis. Work culture is not great, as a younger female I was constantly treated as incompetent by many individuals. The company claims to be diverse on their website, but this is so far from the truth, especially at the plant level.
