LONE STAR BAKERY

The Work: Production Line 
As a quick learner it was easy for me to catch on to how things ran around Lone Star. It's simple and to the point. I enjoyed doing the tasks I had been assigned, having worked in both areas of the bakery. 

The Hours: 12 hours (usually)
I didn't mind being on my feet for 12 hours, it's to be expected when you're working with products in high demand. Hours can change depending on certain products. On the plus side, you receive a 30 minute lunch and 2 fifteen minute breaks over the course of your shift. If you're thinking about coming to Lone Star, just know ahead of time what you are signing up for. 

The Atmosphere: Fair 
What more could you ask for? They have a few vending machines, lockers, and a small break room. 

The Nitty-Gritty: My Perspective 
There is a strong Hispanic culture here at the bakery and many people don’t speak English so, it was kinda hard to talk to people which made me feel a bit uncomfortable while working and I think that’s what really deterred me away from Lone Star. It’s not a culture I fit into nor do I understand. Moving on, some leads seemed rude and bossy while they were talking to me (I couldn’t really understand what they were saying but, I tried) Other than that, the small break room was dirty and dim. Even if I wanted to keep this job it wouldn’t happen sorely based on the fact that I would eventually be cleansed from the position just by ethnicity alone. 

At the end of the day, it’s a decent job with good pay and if I could offer you a word of advice, it would be to just be punctual and show that you are hard working and you’ll succeed in this position.

As long as you are a dedicated, hard worker, lone star bakery will treat you well. This was the best job I've ever had. If you are looking into working here, keep in mind that they are extreamly busy and don't have time for slackers. The people are entertaining, and I only had problems with power stuggles with certain other supervisors. I do also need to reiterate that you must be dedicated to your work if you plan on climbing any ladders or getting hours if you're a part-timer. This is the only job I've had that I looked forward to going to in the morning, but I left so I could focus on other aspects of my life, such as chasing a dream job.

Diffrent hours to start each day schedule posted by 2 days! Time off not an option till you have been there a year schedule filled ahead of time.Told upon hire expected to work 7 days week 12 plus hours.medical really bad.pushed to pay for their shirts.disability even on the job employee pays for.9.25- 10.25 per hr.no more.all good incentives taken away.If you don't know someone who works there expect no help no training!

Be willing to speak up about breaks or you wont get them.Good luck knowing who to ask never knew who supervisors were. Staff on plant floor dictate you spot usually the worst.they will get angry at you for 1st month any mistakes then cut you out to worst jobs no breaks. BE BILINGUAL.IT HELPS.To UNDERSTAND
Extreme labor need anti slip shoes Hard concrete floors!.

Don't expect minimum wage to increase as long as there's no union or immigration doesn't check and start to fine. I am bilingual. Many people are there  just because they know they aren't going to get their Visa and been  the more then 2 years.  Absolutely slow  advancement. If a warehouse is how they run it move your pay scale  to  $11 or higher.  Good job to make your kid go to college. I've seen 25 people  quit in the past two months and not because of the work being  hard. When you see people who have been there 11or more years and make as much as you starting. What would you do? 90% of the work environment is texmex speaking only also. The company doesn't look at resumes or things might would start to change especially culture and pay.

You get a lot of extra hours but for all the work you put in on the line it is not worth it, most of the staff is friendly and helpful but I ran into some ladies that kept trying to get people fired and it was a big issue that was not taken care of when I was there, I don’t know about now since I no longer work there. This job is a on the spot hire, if you need experience in a job, this place would be the best bet. I made lots of friends and enjoyed the help I received when I needed it. If you want to get by for the most part you need to know some Spanish because most people from there only speak Spanish so sometimes there will be language barriers.

They work you to much completely understaffed always dont get a thank you for your work effort days off every 2 weeks long hours dont care about your life outside of work always putting more work and responsibility on you without any pay your opinion never counts the the dumb move up quickly the ones that know what there doing  get fired lots and lots of favoritism supervisors there love for you to be a butt kisser

you may not work on the same line every day. sometimes you get to take home food. it's mostly a cold or hot place to work. There are 2 buildings one is Relly hot I could not work there, but the second building a few mins away is cold and I loved working in the cold. need a jacket to work there. There was time I had to go to the hot plant and that's where the main company is at.

I really liked the job at first, some of the supervisors are racist,if you don't speak Spanish, your like an outcast, they'll keep you out, not everyone is like that,but it's there, upper management doesn't know it exists, but I  had a supervisor tell me that I didn't get help because I'm white, I told my boss ,he sat us down, and he swore to God that he never said that, I didn't argue, I'll let God handle it
