Bigfoot Beverages

Bigfoot is the perfect place for people who like to get up early and work hard. This job is very labor intensive but gives the opportunity to learn new skills such as managing accounts on the merchandising, delivery, and sales level. Hard work is noticed frequently from management because they are out in the trade looking to help and develop different accounts. This job has offered me many different stages of growth that have been earned through hard work.

The teamwork at Bigfoot is very inclusive and friendly. Almost all of the employees are easy to get along with and will help out when you have a tough route with a lot of work on it. The company culture is largely geared toward us all helping out and going home on time. Management does not like to have people out working late if it can be avoided.

I am very thankful to work alongside the awesome coworkers at Bigfoot and know that my effort and long days are not going unnoticed by the lower and upper management. If you want to work hard, work here.

If you enjoy working 2-6 extra hours daily due to your coworkers not doing the job, this place rocks. Accountability is a unheard of term at Bigfoot, if you are a hard worker who finishes the route you are assigned you will be rewarded by being sent to help the slowest worker on the crew and you can go home when he does. Management acts like they know what’s up but are clueless due to changing times, most of management  brags about their days as merchandisers but fail to support the merchandising team with the help they would’ve expected “Back in their hay day”. Corporate america is rampant in this company, don’t expect them to give you a free drink that isn’t expired or foul tasting, and the only added perk of this job is the Ham they give you for christmas and the turkey for thanksgiving

Forced 60-70 hour weeks. This company is built on dumping everything on the bottom people. Merchandisers and drivers are screwed on a daily basis. The turnover rate is so fast I worked there for barely 4 months and saw 6 or seven people start and leave. They promise things will get better even though they never do and they will never offer compensation for doing the work of 2 or three people. This job will break you and the company absolutely will not care. Find something else.

Bigfoot is a local company that has grown more corporate as time goes on. They push employees for more productivity while negotiating raises that don't cover cost of living increases.
The management is very hit or miss, depending on your section. The company as a whole seems to prefer you have no life outside of Bigfoot, 
Overall, it's an okay place to work for a little while, but the lack of meaningful growth in any department outside of sales is what leads to their turnover and dissatisfaction. Most of the leadership there are not open to hearing about these issues, and less willing to address them meaningfully.

While it was enjoyable to work somewhat independently and driving to different locations for a change of scenery, many times the job was stressful and you felt "under the gun" to finish daily route. Daily routes were also inconsistent. Some days were abnormally easy while others were asking to fit too much work into too short of a period while demanding the job was done per company standards. Some times employees would get written up or talked to for overtime, while other times it was acceptable to work overtime. If and employee had an issue, and brought to managements attention, it was not likely the issue would be taken seriously or in a timely manner.

A typical shift consists of at least six stores along the route.  If time is left at the end of the day, the merchandiser must call in and assist other drivers.  Depending on the day, the worker will either fill existing displays, build new store displays, or stock shelves.  The hardest part of the job is the lack of a set schedule.  New merchandisers are put on a call list.  If work is plentiful, the new employee will receive many hours.  They may even be called the morning of a shift if needed.  The lack of reliability in schedules can create stress on the employee.
The most enjoyable part of the job was seeing a job well done when completing new store displays.

Started at 5:00 am till 1:30pm and a lot of times with overtime. It was very fast paced work traveling from store to store, checking in products, merchandising product, checking with store managers for product placement, route settlement. I learned how to develop great customer skills, on the job training for CDL, forklift and pallet jack training. Good management. Great co-workers to work around. The hardest part of the job was to keep up with the demand of constant new product, also heavy lifting. The most enjoyable part of my job was being able to develop good customer relationships while having an everyday challenge.

They absolutely don't care about you. You're just a body that is replaceable to them. They don't treat people fair and play favorites. Shift managers do nothing, they sit in an office with the main supervisors and talk and barley work. People that barley work aren't told to do better and they hire terribley. Pays close to $20 an hr but it's not worth the long hours and terrible employees. Plus if you wanna advance in the company it will take 20 years or more. Overall the company would be great if it had better management.

Workers are required to fill orders by stacking product on pallets. The pallets are carried around using a ride-able pallet jack. The orders are processed using a headset with voice commands. Guys in the warehouse are rough around the edges, but generally good people. The work day does not end until all of the orders are completed for the night, though there are guaranteed 10 minute breaks every 2 hours.

Great place to work and grow.. Employees are paid well and can move within the company to all different avenues of work.  The company cares about the employees and goes above and beyond giving back to the employees and their family's. If your looking for a fast paced company to make a career and raise a family then Bigfoot Beverages could be for you.
