After all I was told by other employees and observed from the way they go through employee's like water...I must add that their best standing is that they cover what is required to keep a good face in the public light to continue their operations as is which is contended with via government inspections and specs. I cannot fault the company for it's standards but it's employment practices and some of their employee's scruples and demeanor's are flawed and self serving in certain aspects hidden by personal agenda or position.
Such as the individual in charge HaaCp/Quality control desk.
Six years in a position that was trained-in as a ground floor personnel hired initially as office clerk,now a major QC and only 2 years in college previous.
Now this person enjoys a top company position and is a vegetarian and dislikes personally cows being slaughtered for beef.
What does this say about a meat production facility folks?! Furthermore I see a pretty big flux in employee turn over.

I worked in the IT department for 2 years. No one was ever held accountable for causing outages or wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on software that we never used. Management avoided making decisions, and when they did, they were arbitrary and poorly communicated to the department. Leaders exhibited poor integrity from the top down and no structure or standards existed for workers to rely on. Frequently referred to as the "wild west" the only reason our computer systems worked at all was due to a combination of individual effort by a few people and loads of money thrown at contractors and cloud-based, admin-friendly systems.

The one potential silver lining of working in AFG's IT department is that there is a double standard, and if you are on one side of that standard working here is probably more enjoyable. If you're comfortable with and enjoy playing office politics, this might be a good place for you.

Would get dressed make sure I had my equipment on correct. Would go down stairs and wait to be let in to the line and ask the line leader where I would be.depending where i was put is what i would have to do.

    I learned the frozen meat is really hard to cut. The fat on meat makes your knife go dull fast. 

  Management was good. Everyone knew what to do. When you wanted a day off you would fill out a paper and hopefully it would get approved if it didn't all you would have to do id fill it out again.

   The people I worked with for the most part were nice. You just had to make sure you didn't do anything wrong to make them mad and more because you were new.

   The hard part would be working on Monday because that's when the meat would be frozen.

  The enjoyable part of working work be the people you got to talk with.

The management there is simply racist and will only look to advance a those of hispanic ethnicity to higher ranks and those of European descent to management positions. Not the best place to work if you are African American/Black unless you are willing to do whatever your told whether legal or illegal, for policy or against policy.
When approaching the plant manager about racism he simply laughed it off. When questioning if they new rules implemented at the time were legal he also laughed in my face and asked me if I was a lawyer.
Management looks out for their own at all times as they are always covering mistakes that go against policy and would slow down production.
They should've been reported then and should be reported now.

A typical day at work involves going on your rounds on the company floor inspecting the operations and making sure everything is documented.

I learned about the hard work involved in a big scale manufacturing operation and the dedication put into it.

The management was on top of everything and they were dedicated to the running of things in the company.

My co-workers were very hardworking and easy to work with.

The hardest part of the job was working the long hours.

The most enjoyable part of the job was working side by side with the co-workers and the management and being on the same page.

break room was up a flight of stairs and inaccessible, no running water in break room, we were once without bottled water for a week because the manager forgot to order more for us. Rules felt like they applied at random for whatever was most convenient for the manager. If you're ok with not seeing the sun ever again, not too bad.

Out of all the companies that promise you "won't be just a number" or "treat their employees like family", this is the only one that I've experienced that acts upon those promises. AFG seems to do all they can to improve the lives of ALL their employees, and I think they do a much better job at this than any other company in their industry.

Need to wake up very early, take verbal abuse from employees for instructing them to take corrective action to make sure they are compliant with Company and USDA procedures. Work was easy compared to what the general laborer had to do. Very high turnover. The company would hire more people each year than was employed.
 Bought beef at great prices. Beef was right off the steer or heifer. Hamburger was only $1.60 a pound.
