Pros

Rapidly growing company that is making a name for itself in pet food industry. Great products. Would not feed my pet anything but. Positive work environment with friendly employees who make the job enjoyable and drive you to come back each day. Decent incentive programs and benefits packages.

Cons

No where but the same. It seems longer you are here the farther in you become and the less chance you have to advance. Most hourly personal are in stagnant positions with no room to grow or improve and day to days becomes repetitive and monotonous. Separation of company. Brand new state of the art facility with great improvement but still missing pieces of the entire company. Company HQ in NJ with who don't see much or any plant operations and are promoting products that they are not close to. Overtop leadership. Some management takes it upon themselves to make changes on the whim based on their personal beliefs without informing anyone. These changes sometimes cause difficulties in production and then are not responsible when their change makes a mistake.

Pros

Great pay, benefits, bonuses. There are a lot of talented and genuinely good people who work for this company. If you work in the office you can get 5 weeks of PTO. Most people are out of the office by 3 or 4.

Cons

As company gets bigger, some perks are disappearing. It happens with any startup.
