Thanks for leaving your review here. We hope you're enjoying Johnsonville and finding plenty of great recreational and entertainment options in Sheboygan County. The "malibu of the Midwest" might not be near a big airport which means direct flights are a bit limited, but being located along Lake Michigan is treat, right?!

Pros

There aren't many anymore. This company has changed drastically for the worse since new leadership the last few years. I only selected 1 star because I had to choose at least one. For Pros, I would say that They take safety and quality very seriously. They have a good brand.

Cons

The new leadership has completely changed the vibe/culture of the company (lots of chiefs). Favoritism is through the roof! They make a decision to close a plant, lose great talent (turn people's lives upside down) and then keep it open! Teams are so lean (not enough Indians) that work/life balance is horrible. And geez, just make a decision. Timey decisions are extremely hard to come by lately and communication is terrible. They tell us to be candid and coach up but how are you treated after doing so? 20 year old employees can be candid and will be listened to but anyone over 40, be careful!

We are sorry to hear you've been caught up in the plant changes this year, and our leadership is aware of the challenges our Meadowside members faced. Because of your long service (thank you!), your voice has value in ensuring we don't lose our way during major transitions like this. So please be sure to offer your ideas and solutions to help us all continually improve. Thank you.
