Poor Place to Work

Pros

Sorry no good reasons to give.

Cons

If employed you will be working 6 days a week with some Sundays work. Making you work 13 days straight. You work 8 to 12 hours a day. The environment in production plant is a wet 32 degrees to 35 degree. Management doesn't care about your family time or health. You are just a number to management.I do not recommend a job here to my family, friends or anyone.Most employees non union and union are saying they are looking for jobs elsewhere and have no feeling about leaving. Non Union employees PTO policy has changed to effect what PTO time you accrue this year you can use next year. Any time carried over from last year you can use this year. The company never told employees about this till mid January. This left some non union employees with very little PTO time to use this year since they was never informed until the policy was effective already. The trust level with management is very very low. All supervisors you talk to say the some thing its a job with a pay but I am looking for another job to. The company is very hard to work for changing every hour their minds. No employee I know is happy or proud to say 'I work at Fresh Express Harrisburg Plant".

Pros

salaries are comparable to above industry average

Cons

1. there is no quality of life unless you work a 1st shift. you go in one time and leave the following morning,,be careful if you leave far away from the plant. 2. Super high turnover with mgmt and supervisory staff. If you know your worth its gauranteed you will leave within a year. 3. lack of proactive organization yet they choose the reactive wait till there is a fire then put it out method. 4. Payroll Issues--take your chance!!! 5. too many foreign employees who dont understand their rights..just happy to have a job.
