In a position to be a competitive employer in San Antonio
Pros
Labatt was a good place to learn from some very smart people. Everyone is willing to help and I learned a lot just from talking with other employees. The company was headed in a good direction until some management changes happened. The people who work there have the knowledge and could put the team in a competitive position if they had any power to make changes. Pay is good.
Cons
The culture. Ingrained in the management and some of the employees who have been at the company for a long period of time is the idea that if you’re not in agreement with all of the spoken and unspoken cultural rules and you don’t want to work at Labatt for life, you're an enemy. Once someone leaves, I never heard anyone say good things and assume the same for my situation. Often when something goes wrong, the people who left get the blame. There is great effort put into hiring college grads so they can teach them the Labatt culture before they have the chance to experience anything else.
