Pros

Free food worth it? Absolutly not

Cons

Worked there for several years they work you to the bone. I am almost 40 in good shape and I have never felt so run down I was getting these pains in the side of my head from being way over stressed the doctor had told me. I had heard that when you get fired from here they belittle you and yell at you and treat you like you are a useless piece of garbage and that everyone here gets fired I had a hard time believing it, well on more then one occasion I had seen this happen and it does not make you feel comfortable as they berate other co workers as they are high above you wealth wise so their mentality is I am better than you, the owners knew about personal issues I had that occurred from working in their facility from being over stressed and worked. When they went to fire me they called a meeting for the whole department to watch two others plus myself be humiliated. In the end it was the best decision they could have made or I would probably be still there with a heart attack under my belt. My Advice to anyone reading this is to stay away, stay far away. These 5 star reviews are far from the truth and probably paid to write from their sheep employees. if you value your personal well being and sanity do not join the dis-functional gourmet foods..

Pros

free food, free food, free food.

Cons

managers have no formal training- which means they dont know how to manage people, they bark orders and swear at people who are working their butts off. management doesnt know what the plan is, they promote "fast paced, changing environment" only because it seems like no one knows whats going on.

Horrible company

Pros

Free baked goods. A pay cheque whenever the bosses decide you deserve it. Fellow employees commiserate with you.

Cons

Unstable work environment. Abusive management. If the company was making money, the owners wouldn't be so miserable all the time.

We understand that this is a forum were people can vent, but at least be truthful. "A paycheque whenever the bosses decide you deserve it"... that is simply not true. We wouldn't be in business (let alone growing) if we treated people the way you describe.
