Pros

None. The pay is terrible. It is a toxic environment.

Cons

If you don't use drugs, you will if you want to keep your job. Several major drug dealers in upper and lower management. They provide synthetic urine for you if a test comes up, but you must pay for fake urine.

Pros

free lunch, discounts on products, hours were 7-3 which allowed for a quick day

Cons

15 days of PTO, no sick days, zero flexibility to work from home, poor leadership, underpaid, misogynistic culture My experience at Boar’s Head ultimately led me to conclude that there was little opportunity for growth, inconsistent leadership, and a workplace culture that tolerated behavior I found unprofessional and, at times, discriminatory. The biggest lesson I learned at Boar’s Head is that hard work and loyalty are not enough when leadership has already decided who will and will not be given opportunities.
