King Ranch Inc

King ranch has afforded me the opportunity to build skills such as working as a member of a team, managing multiple tasks at one time, learning about management practices, and how to be a self-motivated self starter.  
My job is very labor intensive and requires me to be outdoors the majority of the time, it can be very physically demanding, requiring a strong drive to continue and complete projects.  Many days I work alone with little to no supervision.  I am required to self manage my responsibilities. However, my job allows me to constantly move around, rarely seeing the same place every day, this allows me to stay motivated.  I have learned to be proficient, task oriented, and mindful of the resources I use.

My typical day at King Ranch was very busy and fast paced office environment.
I learned a lot about customer service and no matter what task was giving to me to accomplish; I received it with a smile and accomplished with exemplary success.
My co-workers were friendly and promoted team work within the department. I had a great relationship with the women on King Ranch in Kingsville; which helped me in my position as Accounts Receivable Administrator.
The hardest part of my job was to leave to pursue direct selling Mary Kay Cosmetics on a full time basis.
The most enjoyable part of the job was that I gave 110% to my duties due to my very high work ethic. 

P.S.It took two(2) people to replace me when I left King Ranch.

Management could use some improvements.
A typical day includes receiving packages from delivery trucks such as USPS, FedEx, UPS, and/or Freight Trucks. Inspect them for damages, begin quality control as the process of receiving and then distribute inventory accordingly among all business locations.
On the shipping side a typical day consists of lots of phone calls from different departments regarding incoming orders that need to be picked. All orders need to be picked, packed, and manifested each day so packages are ready to be picked up at the end of the day by USPS, FedEx, UPS, and/or Freight Trucks. 
On top of this going on each day there are special projects, reorganizing, housekeeping that need to be maintained. 
Overall busy/ physical atmosphere.

King Ranch has evolved over the past 15 years from a Ranching culture to a Modern, Corporate America culture. The composition and diversity of the board has moved the company to a cutting edge position in agriculture. The focus has shifted from present and former employees and traditions of the "old" King Ranch to Corporate performance and shareholder concerns.

A great company to work for. The greatest financial strength of any company you could work for. Becoming more diverse within agriculture and energy. Great family owners who are a product of strong family and ranch traditions but who are moving the company forward in this era of great change on many economic and business fronts.

Answered in coming calls and placed orders. Did all return and exchange paper work and booked King Ranch hunts on the King Ranch.
I learned to communicate with customers on the phone and also in person, and get along with employees and all kinds.
Managment was all good. In my 30 years at this job I worked under 7 managers.
Co-workers I miss them all. We were all one family.
The hardest part of this job was a Christmas rush of phone calls. I did not like to have phone calls waiting.
The most enjoyable part of this job was everyone got along with each other.

A typical day working at King Ranch Saddle shop would be turning on the lights and opening the register. Next would be looking over that the new inventory that was sent this week and getting familiar with them. After that I would hold a team meeting and go over what todays goal would be. I found it fun to give my employees a goal to motivate them, but most Importantly it would be a way for them to know the store and products in depth. For an example if we got this leather brief case in I would want them to know where the leather came from, what features it has, and what separates this one from the others.

My typical day was downloading lockbox from the bank and posting customer accounts. 
Learned how to reconcile the bank on a daily basis.
Management was mostly CPA's 
Very much A&M grads had better chance for advancement.
Hardest part of the job was being accepted as an individual working very hard to accomodate everyone's wishes and driving 22 miles in heavy traffic every day.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Easy to learn the menu, communication with kitchen  is great, lots of regulars, food is really good 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Sometimes pay is too low, too many people on the floor, instead of being cut they send you on sole meaningless task

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great, drama free, respectful

Usually get there and start prepping before night staff comes in, sometimes go in and help staff by organizing walk in cooler.  Have learned how to cook many types of wild game and cook for 4-25 people nightly.   Good place to work with staff that has been there for years.  great and different place to work in.

Feedmill work is not for everyone.  Hard, grueling, dirty, smelly, are just a few descriptions.  It truly is a dirty job, but someone has to do it.  For those that can, the satisfaction of knowing you did a good job at the end of the day is reward enough.  The experience of working on the King Ranch and being a part of that heritage and that legacy is an added bonus.
