Every day is different because the company where I work is changing all time with different products and customers or because the our own products are being improved every day, different formulas, different presentations, etc. that means I have to be updated in order to evaluate product and manufacturing process.

I have to evaluate product in process and finished product in order to release or dispose product that doesn't meet quality specs,

I have to manage quality control personnel in order revise that all activities performed were followed according to quality plan.

The hardest part of the job is when audits are received.

The most enjoyable part of the job is when all problems that appears are solved.

Most enjoyable: been able to find resolutions for issues. Work on projects. Have interaction with Latin America

Hardest: deadlines with almost no time

challenging workplace with good learning opportunities. Learned electrical practices. Hardest part of the job was the hours. The most enjoyable part of the job wad the leadership opportunities that were presented on a daily basis.

Challenging place to work. A typical day was spent addressing the crisis of the day. Management was very unstable. The work culture was extreme. You were given way much more work than was humanly possible with few resources or support from management.

Rotation every six months from shift to shift is one of the down faults for me. But one of the things i like about this job was a daily challenges you do not get boring.

10 hour typical work day,
Managing independent distributors routes.
You have to be able to manage your day, not a lot of micro managing. Being bilingual is extremely helpful, most distributors are Spanish speaking.

Deceptive. No job description or guidance. I was placed on the opposite side of the building- not with the legal department because the lead did not want to split his office. If someone in management decides they don’t like you- get out quickly. 

I have worked for Gruma in the engineering group for 13+ years. When I joined the company, it had a vibrant feel and progressive management approach. We were growing very fast. That has changed.

Above all is a Great company to work for. Management not very good 
Too much personal pride that affects company functions

a typical work day is going to always be productive, this company is diverse and provides food products to its buyers and offer great opportunity to advance in the industry.
