CG Roxane LLC

A typical day at Crystal Geyser would begin with clocking in for your shift, which rotates every month. The tasks that I would start my shift with would include stocking up on all essential production supplies, including cardboard, caps, and film wrap. I would then ensure that the floors were clean, the garbage taken out, and the inkjet isopropanoled to ensure clean and clear dating of the packages of bottled water. The task of maintaining the smooth and efficient running of the Cermex machine in charge of wrapping and sealing the bottled water from the filler fell to me and usually a partner, sometimes two. The aforementioned tasks would cycle all shift and into the next shift. The hardest part of the job, if any, was the rotating shifts, which made it very difficult for me to spend mcuh time with my daughter. The most enjoyable part of the job was memorizing all of the nuances of the machines under my charge, and the satisfaction of accomplishing at least 90% production capacity. Management, however, was highly irresponsible, with zero accountability, which eventually led to one of my coworkers almost losing his arm in an unsecured conveyor belt.

at the interview they'll lure you in with promises of a 3 dollar raise after 90 days IF you waive the insurance, which I figured wouldn't be so bad to wait the 90 days and ill be making 17 an hour. well the 90 days came up and nothing. I reported to HR they said they would have it fixed and now after 3 weeks and them canning me I didn't end up getting that. I hope you enjoy your 4 foot nothing plant manager running out on the floor telling all his guys to GET TO FUC***G work, and getting chest to chest with me like he wanted to fight. after I said wow look at yourself is when he tells me to go home for the day. on top of that they'll tell you at the interview that its 5 days a week and rarely Saturdays. well that was a lie because since I started we have talked about working Saturdays and have worked Saturdays. after me telling them Saturdays would be a problem. the company itself is awesome, the people they put in charge should be fired!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Family oriented culture from local office. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management and leadership, as well as bias views amongst the floor workers that dictate the culture on the floor and overall successof Technicians. No applied training for current or new employees. Have to deal with political views from employees and managers while at work. And the consumption of mind/ emotional altering drugs while at work and on floor.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Good Ole boy culture. If your not part of the crews that was established prior from leads and plant managers you won't be part of it. Needs help with material management for all Consumable and sustaining parts.

I WORK ON AVERAGE 50-60 HOURS A WEEK, IT IS HARD WORK AND I STAND BETWEEN TWO HEATERS IN 0 DEGREES-100 DEGREES. I AM ON FIRST SHIFT WHICH IS FROM 7AM TO 3:30PM OR FROM 5AM-3:30PM, THAT IS MY SHIFT. IF SOME ONE QUITES WORKING HERE THEN THEY MAY PUT ME ON 2ND SHIFT FOR A WEEK SO THEY CAN TRAIN A NEW GUY. I HAVE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT BOTTLED WATER, THEY PUT OXIGEN IN THE BOTTLES TO KILL BACTERIA. I GET ALONG WITH ALL THE PEOPLE THERE, WHEN I GET CHANGED TO THE 2ND SHIFT ALL THE FIRST SHIFT GUYS SAY HOW THEY MISS ME. THE HARDEST PART OF THE JOB IS I RUN 2 MACHINES AND IF THEY ARE BOTH NOT WORKING RIGHT I HAVE TO GET BOTH OF THEM RUNNING AGAIN. I ENJOY THE SATISFACTION WHEN I MAKE A BONUS FOR PACKING MORE WATER THAN THEY ARE ASKING FOR THAT DAY.

This place is the best kept secret in the area. You can tell they care about their people here. FREE health, dental and vision for the whole family and if you don't take the insurance, they pay you an additional $3.00 an hour to work.  They pay money toward your gas to come to work and efficiency bonuses for hitting our targets! Plus the people here are truly great. I've been here for three weeks and they could not be nicer. The work environment is clean, they have plenty of supplies and listen to your concerns. Plus, there is plenty of opportunity to work OT if you'd like it. The company itself is pretty cool too. They care about the plant and take care to make an amazing product. Plus- free product.

A typical day at CG & Roxane included: Refilling Caps hopper(s) and help starting up the line. I learned how to deal with production stress. Management was reliable and strict. the workplace culture was similar to being part of a family. The hardest part of the job was keep an eye on every part of the line. Being the only floater I was tasked with keeping the Caps hopper full, the line clean taking out the trash, cleaning the bottling machine at the end of the workday. The most enjoyable part of the day was being in charge of the line, since it was challenging and very reliant on attentiveness.

Warehouse, concrete, cold in the winter, wide range of diversity

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Line work, repetitive. Unless you’re a mechanic you do the same thing every day

I've been with this company for almost 23 years.  It's a family owned and run business that truly cares about the employees and their families.  Health care is 100% paid by the company for the employee and their family.  The newest operator has the same health care plan as the CEO.  This is impossible to find in today's job field.  75% of all Leaders, Department Managers, Plant Managers, Directors, and even VP's have worked their way up in the company.  Advancement potential is only limited by your own performance and desire.   I got lucky finding this company so many years ago.
