BIRDSONG PEANUTS

Work-life balance
It is hard to maintain work life balance during harvest because of the long hours.

Pay & benefits
The hourly pay is slightly above average for the area but it works out to be good money since hours can be 60-80/week.

Job security and advancement
Only a small percentage of employees get promoted to full time. Most are seasonal.

Management
Management is amazing! As long as you do your job and show up, you will never have a problem. They are some of the finest people I have ever worked alongside. The people is really what made this a great place to work because the job can be all-consuming at times, it's demanding and not for the faint of heart, but it is a welcoming team environment.

Overall
Birdsong Peanuts-during Harvest, anyway-is one of the hardest jobs I have ever had. However, It is extremely rewarding work, helping provide food for thousands of people. Most people hire on as seasonal help, very few are kept in for full time positions. My co-workers were so amazing. Truly warriors who almost always had a positive attitude and were supportive. I loved this job. I would never trade the experience, but I'm not sure I could do it again. American Farmers are beasts, working 100 hour weeks, so the plant works 24hrs/day, 7 days/week. Most work 12 hour shifts, 7 days/week. It's an adventure for sure. Would recommend more to young, single people, but you can balance a family-everyone I worked with there were family oriented people. Overall, if I was asked by someone should they take this job, I'd say, "go for it."

What is the best part of working at the company?
Paid days off but you have to be there for at least two years before you build up enough time to take off. They would cook on Fridays. 


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They didn't want to spend any money to fix something that was not working. If you reported it to them you would get the full blame for it.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Supervisors are intentionally mean to the employees. They want to fire anybody for any reason they can come up with. It's going to hurt the company because they lose the good ones.


What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very hostile environment.  They try to overload a good worker with too much work while the majority of the sorry workers just do as they please. If you report a supervisor you will pay for it.

The job is what you make of it and your performance with light supervision. I have an incredible boss who is and has been more fair, understanding and professional than any other I’ve had before. What most people don’t like about this job when they start is they don’t understand the fact that they have more than one position to do more than one responsibility every day. 

There is a lot of hard-working individuals that are taken for granted in order for the plant manager to get a large amount of money at the end of the quarter. Operators are made to work on machines while maintenance sit on their behinds and do nothing.  We are made to work strenuous hours trying to get as many bags as they want so the plant manager pay can increase. The employees are threaten with termination if a certain amount of bags aren't collected. The women are treated unfairly in a man dominated workplace. I do not recommend this place for employment

What is the best part of working at the company?
None no team work at all bad experience 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
No help when needed plus it’s like working in a prison always being watched by camera.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Not bad at all could be better if people would come together and help when needed.

As an employee for almost 3 years , I really enjoyed working there. The job in itself was time consuming and took dedication . My work environment was very laid back but yet busy all at once. Birdsong is full of life and is a great place to work . The benefits are awesome and I would highly recommend anyone to apply and/or work there.

If I could give zero stars I would just because the company allowed one of the government inspectors to have relations with one of the truck drivers. The driver lose his job and she keep hers everybody at the plant know she was dating the driver. She throws herself on them guys.

Learned a lot about the inside and outside in many years of work ethics learned to drive a tractor pull wagons learned the warehouses inside out dumping and loading from our warehouses my manager was more then a boss he was like our own family our whole crew wore over the years we kept the same folks around for over 10 yrs.
