American Beverage Marketers

After 5 years of working here, I've experienced  frustration in lack of planning, lack of communication and the huge disconnect between the owner of the company and everyone who works beneath him. Management has very little to no say in what goes on in the plant which makes it difficult since the owner is never on the plant floor seeing how things are running or seeing how his employees are doing. Things are constantly being changed on the last minute which causes a domino effect through the whole plant. There is only one shift so when a machine goes down and they can't fix it for 5 hours, you're stuck. You are there until they finish that run for the day. It's very difficult to have a life outside of this place. There's no growth in the company either. I've watched plenty of great co-workers get promised to be promoted only to have those promotions be given to people coming in from outside the company. Worker's morale is very low which creates a hostel environment. When I started with this company, it was not like this. Somewhere along the way things took a downward slide and it's not looking like things are going to change. Thankfully management is on your side when it comes to the overall working conditions of the place. During the summer, you're slammed and get tons of hours and during the winter months, you have to fight to get hours.  Hopefully this company will turn around. If you enjoy working non-stop and want OT, this is your place. If you want a set schedule at all, I do not recommend this place for you.

What is the best part of working at the company?
American Beverage Marketers is a one-of-a-kind team!  It doesn't matter which department you work in, or who you work for, everyone is genuinely happy to work along side you.  It is a fun place to work, there is always work to be done, and it's a fun industry to work in. ABM is truly the work family you never knew you needed!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not enough hours in the day, and the time flies by way too fast.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
From the moment you walk in the door, it's very welcoming and inviting. Even on the busiest days, it's still a pretty calm environment. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Non-stop from the minute I walk in the door. There is always something to do in every position held. There is always something new to learn each week, and sometimes almost daily.

i take a lot of self pride in everything i touch, over the past 7 years the company has grown remarkably and have treated me fairly, we have seem to forget that quality should be more important than quantity, its called self discipline and keeping the customer FIRST! its heavy on my heart to watch the mangers turn a blind eye to obvious problems. the managers we receive from big companies are not trained for this type of company, we believe in doing things the right way, the first time!

I recently joined the ABM team and am truly impressed with the operation. ABM fosters a proactive and growth-oriented mindset, significantly contributing to brand development and long-term sustainability. I strongly endorse ABM to those seeking to be part of an organization that not only values its people but also appreciates a strong work ethic, eagerness to learn, and a performance-based reward system.

Schedule is all over the place o e day it is 8 hours the next is 12. Constant issues and favoritism is rampant from the owners. 
 Very little regards to employee safety and it is a production first at all cost mentality. Any company that hands out alcohol to employees while production is still running does not care about safety

Work - Life balance is nonexistent here. Never know when getting off. Only 2 weeks vacation no matter if you have been there 1 year or 20 years! Safety is not a priority!!  Management is very rude to employees and doesnt treat them like adults. Not enough adequate restrooms for number of employees.
No proper break area. I could go on and on!  

During a typical day I was focused on product distribution and cutting costs whenever possible. I was the liaison between ABM and all of our distribution carriers. I also worked in the warehouse from time to time when needed.

Company culture is relaxed and positive. Owners of the company are onsite and actively involved in leadership of all aspects of the business. Employees generally get along well and have a good attitude about work.

I worked there for the summer for some extra cash. The whole time i was there i worked with a lot of nice people. I worked on the bucket line, packaging line, and bagging line all were pretty easy just had to maintain a certain speed to keep up with the daily goal.

This is a great company in an industry that is only going to grow.  Owners treat all staff well and value hard work. If you're looking for a career this is the place.
