Golden State Foods reviews

Upper management treat workers of all departments like lesser individuals. There is lack of proper training as management fails to hire from within and choose to bring in individuals when there are qualified workers who know the job and the culture. This tends to grow resentment from the overlooked workers who then have to train the new hires to lead andmanage the workers themselves. Over the course of 6 months that I worked there, many individuals quit because of the horrible work/life balance of the job here. It does not matter how hard you work, your efforts will be overlooked. The general consensus is that by catering food to the workers a few times a year, the company can be ran with little regard for the actual workers. This is a Food manufacturing and distribution center, yet the general disregard for overall safe food handling and manufacturing conditions is deplorable. The only real effort made is to ensure that business is not lost from the various food companies GSF is a vendor for. There is little regard for how the products will impact the people who will consume the products. If you want to do monotonous work than this is the perfect job for you, just make sure you do not want an opportunity to move up in the company, because that's certainly not what you will get.

- No paid vacation for a year for professionals - Outdated "old school" culture where they want you to work 8-5 (no flexible work hours) - No music (dead silent environment) and no streaming music allowed - Too much concern and surveillance about internet usage - Wi-fi doesn't work so well in the building (outdated wi-fi?) - Pay is not super competitive and in line with the external market
