Pros

I have worked in a variety of settings in the past, but none come close to the amazing culture, learning & development, and growth available at Niagara bottling! The level of transparency among management is insanely refreshing! I know that regardless of the projects I am assigned or the team I am working with, any manager or VP is always ensuring that they make every effort to really get to know the teams they manage. In most other organizations, that sense of visibility and compassion seems to be lacking. Niagara employees are looked upon as family, with respect oozing from every cubicle in every department. Employee feedback is not only always given but encouraged. This is the one thing I love about this company - feedback is tremendously crucial to growth. To know where one is going, one has to know what to fix and where to improve in the process. Niagara recognizes this and acts on it. The culture of this company is another amazing aspect. All members of Niagara are so encouraging and supportive. Entering as an LDP with no prior experience in Manufacturing, for example, I have never once felt as if I wasn't able to contribute because of that experience barrier or intimidation. My team was beyond supportive, monitoring every step of my progress and ensuring that I had all the tools necessary to complete any task. Questions were not only welcomed but encouraged. This sense of environment not only makes it conducive to excel, but also creates as sense of camaraderie among members of the team. It is truly a "work hard, play hard" environment! My Talent Development Manager, Updesh Maharaj (not to mention Haley Slusser), is another big reason why I decided to join Niagara. I came in telling myself "if everyone at Niagara has this type of carefree, driven, diligent, and compassionate attitude, this is the company I want to work for." His level of engagement with every talent that comes through is inspiring. The whole HR team is spectacular. I am very excited about this journey and can’t wait to learn as much as possible in the next year and a half through my rotation as an LDP fellow before settling on a department and position!

Pros

I have a job....... I have health insurance (very expensive) I work with a few really great people

Cons

Do not believe false ratings about this company. Look back in earlier reviews if you want to know how people really feel about working at Niagara. Most of the recent reviews that Niagara is now commenting on are coming out of California where the corporate office is located. Imagine that! Trying to get their company ratings up maybe?

Appreciate you taking a few minutes to let us know you outlook and point of view. We, like many high growth companies, value our people and their perceptions. Unfortunately, there is no perfect situation for everyone. Our continued average 30% growth over the past 8-10 years would not have happened nor continued had we not made great people decisions. Not every company is a good fit for everyone and we strive to get it right at the hiring but sometimes we miss the mark. Not everyone thrives in our culture. So for those who continue to seek self development and opportunity we will continue with our committment of develop our team members and orovide a career not just a job. Again, thank you for your feedback.

Pros

Only good thing about working there is the experience you will get in manufacturing to move on to something better.

Cons

There is no training in place for new people coming in. They just have someone train you for a day or two them leave you by yourself. It's amazing this place is still up in running.

While we can certainly appreciate not being a good fit for every person. We do have a very empowered culture that encourages team members to seek out some information. It is fast paced, there is ambiguity, and not everyone thrives in an environment like this. The opportunities are there for anyone to join, grow and become successful at Niagara Bottling. Our dedication to innovate and improve is part of our DNA. The manufacturing equipment in our inventory is not only state of the art but they are the fastest in the industry. These don't exist anywhere else in the world. We are a high growth organization, many times with such demand and high growth the employee profile is somewhat more independent and can swim very quick in our environment. Were definitely not a good fit for everyone. Thanks for your feedback.
