Medosweet Farms

I worked full-time for a couple years at Medosweet. Things started out great. There was always work to do and it was steady work. The pay is okay, they have benefits, they aren't the best, but it's better than nothing. 

After working there for over a year, I found there was no career advancement, no promotion opportunities and the management wasn't really clear on communication. I felt they would stress out over little things, but when a bigger issue is brought up, they would brush it off. They weren't clear on what performance markers and goals there were for me and my work and saved up all the negative things to dump on me at once - but would then turn around and say a generic "You're doing a great job though. Thanks!" I had no way to track my own work performance or the work performance of those reporting to me. 

There are some hard workers there that do above and beyond their job. Unfortunately it goes unnoticed and those that are doing less than their job also goes unnoticed and they can stay employed with Medosweet by doing the bare minimum, if that at all. 

Overall I left because I didn't feel trusted or empowered in my role there and I felt very under appreciated and under recognized for the things I did do.

Great family business type of culture. Obvious small company trying to compete with larger specialty and broadline food service distribution arms in the region. Lots of growing pains they will need to go through in the process. With eye constantly on bottom line profit, it makes them pretty short sighted and skiddish in making the necessary investments and risks it would take to compete on a larger scale in the food distribution marketplace. This would take improvements in areas such as creative pricing, technology, supply chain and sales coverage.
With that said the Company's reputation among current customers is outstanding. This is via the personal touch they give being a privately-held and family owned company. Though there were no opportunities for advancement, for the most part, I did enjoy my time there. And I liked the refresher course it gave me in food service distribution. I will be able to apply this in my future endeavors.

MedoSweet Farms is the epitome of a small business success story.  Management was clear in the goals and direction.  Owners were involved.  Sales team was replaced and new accounts were being landed almost daily. 

The haters who've reviewed this company were washouts/burnouts.  

Extremely physical job, but that is a bonus if you want to stay in shape.  Pay was beyond fair.  For a small company the benefits were robust.  Wish I hadn't left them.

If you want to work hard and get your job done and do it safely, this is your company.  If you are lazy, unmotivated or a straight out liar(just read the other reviews)then apply somewhere else 



They say that employees are family. That is, if you do everything they ask, when they ask, whether it makes sense or not. Don't question their decision making etc. Be a team player. Put your head down and work hard. Your personal time is what is left over after you do what they ask when they ask. They will treat you well....until you make an honest mistake. Then you are gone. No matter how long or what you have contributed to their company. They are not great people who value you higher than profits. They are businessmen and you are replaceable part in their machine. If you remember this no matter what they do or say to the contrary, then you will be be satisfied to work there. I prefer to chase after happiness. 😊

Hurry up and wait for orders

Medosweet Farms is a small family owned business that cares about its employees. While the work is sometimes challenging, the managers and supervisors make sure you know that you are appreciated. The trucks are kept in good working order and any issues are dealt with quickly. 
The customers love the drivers and Medosweet has an excellent reputation with their customer base. 

This is not a good company to work for.  Upper management has no idea what is going with their employees. They listen to gossip and believe it as the truth instead of going to the source. It is a family-owned company so nepotism runs ramped. They only care about the employees if they think they get something from them.  Will toss you out like trash for no reason at all.

Poor management, poor leadership and favoritism. Especially by the supervisor, wouldn’t recommend it to people who want a long term job. They work you like a slave and act like you don’t have family to go home to. They say it’s a family owned company and they want employees to feel like a family, when they really don’t care about their workers. Plus they are so unprofessional and unorganized.

It's awesome working for this family owned business.   The company has a profit sharing program that pays out based off of profits and time served with the company.   Management always happy to take the time to talk to employees, and always treat everyone with respect.  Most management leads by example as well.  Very hard to find other jobs like this in the area.

Low level employees are treated as if they are nothing but trash that you throw out.  Management has no idea how to schedule or keep staff.  I currently a manager at a different delivery company and would never treat one of my employees the way I was treated.
