AFCO Distribution & Milling

There were various challenges in the office, including issues with favoritism, lack of clear communication from management, heavy workloads related to data entry and customer service, and limited opportunities for professional growth. The management team seemed to prioritize financial gain over employee well-being. Additionally, employees were occasionally required to work weekends and overtime without advance notice. Concerns raised to management were not always effectively addressed, and requests for a pay raise or expressing dissatisfaction with compensation were met with negative reactions. Annual salary increases were typically capped at about $0.40 cents and employees are encouraged to appreciate and value that adjustment. The distribution of raises appeared to unfairly benefit certain individuals. I felt undervalued and replaceable, with one manager displaying misogynistic behavior. When I reported these concerns to HR, they were not adequately addressed. The workload was overwhelming, leading to physical discomfort and a decline in my mental health. I was a "rented body", told I should be happy with the pay I received (office staff was the least paid in the company), and told I was replaceable. The sales team did little work and reaped the benefits of sales (commission), even though the administrative team in the office did ALL the work. 

Entering orders, many incoming/outgoing phone calls, coordinating shipments with the warehouse and trucking manager. Overseeing 3 other ladies in the office. Helping maintain a friendly company and positive customer service experience. Extreme attention to detail was required. There was too much work put on one person to be able to succeed.
Management could have used a lot of help, but I found ways of coping. My coworkers had their days, but for the most part were great to work with. The hardest part of the job was being able to accomplish all that was required in a day while still getting out of there on time to avoid overtime. My favorite part, was the interaction with customers and our competitive "add on" sales!

The job its easy but the people from the night crew will abuse honesty and hard working people. They will talk behind your back and make you work harder than you should just because they want to spend all their day talking and taking breaks. They will even sleep on the breakroom couch while youre working like a mad person and they will blame every single slow day on others but themselves. They will difame you, harras you, insult you, get in your personal life and there is nothing you can do about it. Mannager doesnt really care since the last week I worked at another cooworker brought something up to him amd he ignored it, no he said that is ok. He encouraged a bad and un ethic behaviour.

Manager was the worst and working conditions are unsafe! Manager comes and goes as he pleases and usually shows up reeking of marijuana then complain to employees for taking their smoke break. Bad employees took advantage of him with no consequence which made good employees work harder with no reward other than extra hours. The air quality is really bad! The dust is out of control and makes for sore lungs and breathing problems. Annual raise of 15-25 cents. False promises of advancement...you'll finally get promoted but have to wait months for dollar raise. Hard, fast paced work with minimal compensation

Future employees beware. This company is based on nepotism, not performance. You will only advance if you are a friend or family member of upper management. Special favors and privileges are granted to these employees only. Rules only apply to lower-level employees. Hard work is not rewarded. The more work you complete, the more work you will be assigned. There is no room for growth. Senior employees feign ignorance to avoid working and refuse to learn new methods. Management supports this behavior. Beware! They abuse their employees " humans" and their families here.

Absolutely no care for their employess. They try to make everything sound better then it really is. They overwork you at all oppourtunity and more. Frown and even try to write you up for taking scheduled days off. The most unproffessional work environment i have ever been a part of, including fast food. Nostalgic high school environment, where the popular get away with whatever and blame everything on the night crew. 

Great benefits! Medical, dental, 401k, life insurance, and Aflac options. AFCO Distribution is a co-op; upon approval of the board every year they send out profit sharing checks. Management truly cares about their employees and their success in the company. There are opportunities to move up and learn more. There’s a monthly appreciation lunch where managers share what’s new and thank everyone for all they do. It’s a great company to work for.

The staff at each level understands that the customer comes first. With all the moving parts of the business the staff knows the daily tasks and depending on the variable (Inbound/outbound deliveries, new/old products, Customer/Vendor promotions or events & changes in the weather) everyday is different. However that is what makes the job exciting and a fun place to work!

I worked at this company for 8 years to receive no respect and to basically be forced to leave because my workload was given away without any discussion about what their intentions were and why they felt this was needed. I asked why and was told they were restructuring the routes, which meant they just found another person they liked better. I was losing money which made the decision easy to leave. 

This company is a very poor ran place to work.  The managers are control freaks that will talk bad about you to others while smiling at you and telling you you’re doing a great job. The pay is well below average or what it should be.  You will get all the work no one wants to do.  The actual workers are great people. The management is terrible.  Avoid this place at all costs.
