Farmer Focus

This company doesn’t just talk about values. It lives them. Every day, I see community, accountability, respect, excellence, and stewardship in action. Whether it's a team member lending a hand on the floor or leadership taking time to listen and support, there's a shared commitment to doing what's right for each other and for the people we serve.

Leadership truly puts people over product, and that care trickles down throughout the organization. Even during rapid growth and the inevitable challenges that come with organizational change, the team stays grounded. There's a remarkable ability to manage chaos with grace, adapt quickly, and still deliver high-quality results. That’s only possible because of the strong sense of teamwork and supportive leadership that keeps us focused, aligned, and resilient.

I’m incredibly proud to be part of a company whose mission I believe in: providing humane, traceable, and healthy chicken to families across the country. It's not just a job; it's a purpose. If you’re looking for meaningful work in a place where your contributions matter and values are more than just words, this is where you want to be.

Unlike the management team at Farmer Focus, I’m not here to be unethical by airing all of their problems.

However, the recent hires for management have been nothing short of disappointing. It’s reminiscent of when the Redskins used to spend exorbitant amounts of money on washed-up players, hoping to turn the team around, only to fail.

One bright spot at Farmer Focus is their marketing team. They’ve created an image of a great company culture, but when you actually arrive, the atmosphere tells a different story.

Farmer Focus is positioned to advance with better technology, but progress is stalled. Many employees who have been with the company since its inception are set in their ways. They've convinced the company that they’re indispensable and are resistant to change, either out of fear that they’ll no longer be needed or because they’re unwilling to adapt to new technology.



A typical day at Farmer Focus involved long physically exhausting hours under constant pressure,often lasting until 5 or 6 am in the morning coming in at 3:53pm daily for 2nd shift.I learned resilience but the environment lacked consistency and support.Management showed clear favoritism, giving certain individuals better treatment and more opportunities which caused frustration across the entire team.Communication was poor and teamwork was unreliable.The hardest part of the day was the extreme hours,leaving team members to exhausted to handle appointments or responsibilities the next day.The most enjoyable part was simply pushing through and building personal strength.

I worked as a QA supervisor at this facility for 1 year and the work life balance it terrible. The shifts were more often than not 10 to 12 hrs. and 6 days a week. The management was more focused on making themselves look good than the interests of their employees. When food safety situations arose i was often overridden when i knew the proper steps that should have been taken and all for the sake of "getting the orders out the door". Pure and simple money is more important than safety or quality here and it is a shame because at one time this was a wonderful company to work for an be a part of but approximately 6 months after I started my job certain people were hired for management positions that should have never been hired due to their lack of care and know how.  If you choose to work here, just be prepared for long hours and 6 days a week working under people who could care less about you and the quality of the product they are providing to the public.

Management turnover is hig
Expectations are extremely high for the limited number of employees and broken equipment 
You’ll work 6 days a week 10+ hours
They say it’s unlimited time off, good luck getting that time due to being short staffed
Too many chiefs in upper management, zero leadership, expectations are pushed by fear not leadership 
Highly do not recommend applying, save yourself the stress
The leads will end up making more than you as a salaried employee 
Favoritism
Border line broke company so it’s a high stress on perfect expectations without  the resources available to get the job done ie PIT equipment is very old, limited number per department and employees have to charge every 45 mins and take an average of 20 min.  Most unsafe pit equipment I’ve ever seen 

Farmer Focus is a different kind of work environment. If you're tuned in and working towards your goals, you will be successful. There's been a ton of growth in the year and a half that I've been here and I like that you can directly make an impact on the shape of the company. 
Straight-forward type of management and communication. Strong work ethic is required. HR in a highly diverse, blue collar work environment can be challenging but I feel like we have the support and understanding from other departments and management. 

I've always worked for small local companies in my area. Farmer Focus is my first experience working in a cooperate structured setting. I feel like I have had the opportunity to grow and learn new skills with the support of my manager through training. I love my job because I get to go into the field and work with the farmers and contribute to the relationship between them and the company. Everyone that works at the company is welcoming and more than willing to answer questions or jump in to help with a project, big or small.
