Buffalo Games, Inc

I worked at Buffalo Games for almost 15 yrs.  I was their senior graphic designer and designed package graphics, all the product catalogs, marketing materials, and was involved in product development. 

For the first 11 yrs it was an amazing company.  I loved it and was sooo happy there.  I felt appreciated, challenged, and loved the projects.  The culture was fun, family oriented, and very supportive.  I mean, who could complain about being at a company that you got to play with jigsaw puzzles and board games all day, right?  

HOWEVER…..

My 11th year there, everything changed, with the hire of a new project manager.  It was NOT for the better!  He was manipulative, power-hungry, and honestly didn't know what he was doing.  All the managers started to follow his lead though.  When he started coming in late, the other managers follow suit one by one.  The management style changed and under management started to be treated poorly.  My coworkers, including myself, started feeling unappreciated, started going home with heartburn, and crying at their desks.  He was so good at manipulation, that everyone was under the impression that something else was the cause, and he was a great manager. 

I kept holding on, hoping things would get better and he would be discovered, and instead I lost my job.  Afterwards I found out that, after 4 yrs of enduring his mistreatment, I was suffering from over 40 symptoms of workplace bullying and emotional abuse.  I endured things such as him talking over me in meetings, yelling at me behind closed doors, isolating me from supportive employees, intimidation tactics, showing preferential treatment to my teammates, keeping me out of the loop and not including me in team meetings, threading my employment, talking down to me, pulling me off of projects, and diminishing my concerns and ideas. 

For the next 2 and a half years, after I lost my job, I only heard horror stories about how people were treated there.  Over 25 loyal employees were fired for ridiculous reasons, and had things blame-shifted onto them. 

The hardest part about the job, was watching the company fall apart the last 4 and a half years I was there, because of the poor management that occurred.

The best part of the job was everything that happened the first 11 yrs I was there.  The projects were amazing, the atmosphere was fun and enjoyable, and I felt appreciated.

People work and got along. everyone work on thier own machine and every was happy. I work unsuperviced and monitor machine operation and did repairs, wrote reports on a daily bases and did mechanical change overs. I got along with co-workers and staff as well. my daily reports wore sent to management, supervicer, head of the MT dept and Company Manager. What I learn was to manage production and to operated machines. Pick orders and fill them out. This was not part of my job discription but it was ask of me to do. I also drove forklifts and load and unloaded porduct from warehouse shelves.

My work day was always interesting, learn new things, loved working on the presses, different Machines, my boss was good to me, ask me to work overtime, My co- workers where fun to work with and got along , working with Mechanics was challenging, and I enjoyed getting picked to work on new presses.

Great Company to get into.  A typical day at work consisted of finding new locations as a sales associate, and assembling games for new locations.  The management there is great.  Co-workers are great.  The hardest part of the job was finding new locations as a sales associate.  The most enjoyable part of the job was it was work when you want.

A typical day at work would be entering orders from retail customers, answering customer service calls, emails and letters.  Processing labels, shipping and customs paperwork.

I learned a lot about working with a team, customer service, computer skills.

Comfortable busy 10 hour shifts,my coworkers where great to work with! The company was very important to me was exciting working there.payed well and good benefits worked well with others, overtime when availability..

Where too start. This job sucks. Supervisor is a complete loser has no type of mangaement skills. Only favors people he wants the pay sucks do not work for these idoits. Co workers are friendly but fair warning management are a waste do not work here!!!

Everyone is stationed at their own machine and can focus on the work, it is fast paced and ideal for someone who can not handle being surrounded by people. Everyone works independently yet as a team at the same time

The hrs are decent they try to schedule you around your time and the pay is decent 11.10 isnt bad its just not living stable especially by yourself other then that its a decent place to work for easy money

Excellent work experience, Continually growing and moving ahead.  Learning new things and operations daily.  Excellent benefits and profit sharing plan.
