Trident Seafoods reviews

Time away a from ome

- PTO/parental leave policy is bad for how big of a company it is - R&D had very little schedule flexibility. Obviously we had to be onsite to work in the lab, but as a team we all had to get there at the same time and leave at the same time every day, no leaving early or working from home in the afternoon if you finished your lab work in the morning. Office positions have a hybrid schedule. - We were understaffed the whole time I was there, which led to fast burnout ESPECIALLY in leadership positions. My manager worked easily 10-12 hours a day and usually worked on weekends too. - A lot of the work is ingredient change projects which are pretty boring - The R&D process was very misunderstood and underappreciated, which led to us having many last minute pivots and urgent last minute projects (leading to more burnout) - Company as a whole is very stuck in their ways when it comes to processes, marketing, etc. We had several different marketing executives from very large CPG companies come on board while I was there and then leave because they realized they couldn't implement any of their ideas.
