Niagara Bottling reviews

Since 2015, the leadership has been very poor as there has been a new director in the team and the planning team has had suffered numerous setbacks and team members departing. The average lifespan of a planner is 18-24 months as people get burnt out due to lack of work life balance. Within the last year at least 10 people have left, including 4 managers so that shows the revolving door nature of the team. As a result of this, people are constantly being hired and trained and that takes time away and effort away on training for current team members. There is absolutely no work-life balance as a planner because you are expected on call 24-7 since the plants run 24-7. There is a bit favoritism within the company and they are able to move up quicker even though they may not the suitable person for the position. The compensation and benefits is definitely NOT competitive as they like to boast in their job postings. The company used to provide free lunches on Wednesdays during the summer months and bagels on Mondays, but that is no longer the case since they have gotten so much bigger (yet they can add multiple new Vice Presidents). The Logility implementation has been a failure due to a lack of IT resources dedicated for the project. You couldn't provide proper feedback on the project without the fear of getting fired as the planning leadership disapproved any such feedback.

1. house of unnecessary secrecy: upper management withholds information from subordinates so they never understand why they are working their lives away. 2. when things go wrong, many people's first reactions is to find a place to point the finger of blame. expect to spend a significant portion of your time explaining yourself to upper management even when you're doing everything perfectly right. 3. low pay, low benefits, low vertical mobility unless you're in "the club" or network your way into "the club" 4. pay was exceptionally low for a position on which i could be contacted any time after hours to work.
