Pros

Legacy benefits and payroll are adequate. Structured health insurance options that are affordable. Above average pay for hourly and salary positions.

Cons

Since the purchase of Valley Proteins in May of 2022, Employees are leaving across the company at an alarming rate. Some divisions / departments have 100% turnover. Not uncommon to see break rooms / common areas with 10 or more job postings on any given week. The culture and morale for the remaining employees are very poor. Almost any one I talk to at the company are in fear every day of losing their job from layoffs / consolidations. They feel there is no future and no job security / stability. The "survivors" from VP legacy operations, across all employee titles from regular hourly to salaried management fear everyday that "today is the day".
