I will come in and greet my fellow co-workers. We would meet up around our clipboard to see what postion you will be working in. I would be usually working as a order picker. If there are orders left from the day before i would seperate them from floor display orders, and regular orders. Me and another co-worker would start picking orders and putting them on the conveyor belt. When we would get done with the regular orders from the day before, we would switch to the floor display orders, and work on them until we ran all them out. After that if we have received any new work for the day, I would sperate it and do it all over again. While we would be working the managers and bosses would walk around and greet everyone and see how you been doing. I would learn new products to pick and what they are usually before any other co-worker. I would say the hardest part of the job was just trying to remember all the products and they're item number , and trying to keep the belt filled up if were in a rush. The enjoyable part of the job I would say interacting with co-workers and having a job that takes care of they're workers.

On the surface, the company shines with it's Core Values & The Gorilla Way.  Inside, these things are tossed aside at a moment's notice.  The culture is cutthroat and hostile.  Management has gotten aggressive, rude, and inappropriate.  This place was great 5-6 years ago.  Now in 2019 it seems the aggressive growth & the mighty dollar matters more than the employees.  People are treated poorly compared to how things were a few years ago.  I would not recommend this if you are a professional looking for a place to call home.  It has gotten ugly.  Sure they win Top Place to Work for in Cincy every year but that's a farce.  That survey is "pay-to-play" so as long as the Company pays the cash to take the survey, they are automatically a Top Place to work for.  That shoe used to fit, but no longer does.  I would avoid.  I'm not a minority, but the way minorities were treated was also disgusting.

Had a great time working here. The benefits were beyond great. One of the rarest places to find benefits like theirs. The only issue I have with the company is lack of communication with upper management and the supervisors who watch over the people that work in the warehouse. If you break ANY of the policies, regardless of anything going on in your personal life, you will be written up or given a warning. Too many warnings will eventually lead to write ups. 3 write ups means termination.

I loved this job. I was able to use many different machines and made many different products, such as O'Keefes working hands lotion, Gorilla glue, gorilla tape and much more. They gave us bonuses for getting out certain amount of products and sent us to Reds games and so much more. This company was a wonderful company to work for. The company payed for your insurance deductable, and gave you so much room to grow.

Productive and fun company to work with just need a few changes with management and the HR department I felt like I was held back there and wasn’t able to succeed like I wanted to because of current management there and it is very competitive there and I don’t think half of the stuff that goes on around there as far as the supervisors reach all the way to the owners in some cases but on a over all scale it is a very good company to work with and it is on the upswing of things

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great people and great products!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Toxic sales leadership, low pay

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great, except for one sales leader, who has chased off a dozen good people in 10 years.  That person is toxic and is opposite of the rest of the company.  The problem is that it impacts many areas of the sales and marketing departments.  Be cautious if you are interested in sales related role.

I worked there for 4 years and one of the worst jobs in Cincinnati. I had 4 positions but did not compensated right at all. The supervisors on up have no idea how to operate and make things way more complicated that’s stuff has to be. You get sent home early a lot and it’s worse then high school as far as drama goes. 1st and 2nd shift are a joke. Unless you kiss butt real good it’s not worth working for them unless you kiss butt real good. Otherwise find something else worth your time

A typical day at work goes by quickly . You are working at a very fast pace. You will know immediately if you fit in with the co-workers. You learn different packaging and the supervisors are always around helping . Exciting place to work if you get in good with the employees. Learning new production is the most interesting part. Packing new products is the best part.

They do feed us every now and then it's nice. It's  very hot and no matter how good a worker you are they have clicks which is sad cause if the leader of the click doesn't like you it's a hard place to work. Most people worked there before.

It’s a a good place to have worked for. It’s a family owned company. I worked for a little over 17 years there. If I would’ve not liked it wouldn’t have worked there for so long there. Retired  from there back in 2019 in April.
