Merrick Pet Care

Very independent work environment, requiring nothing less than complete honesty and excellent self management. Responsibilities include; scheduling working demos with stores in San Diego and Orange County territories, maintaining positive relationship with retailers and employees, engaging and educating customers, sales and product conversions, moderate to lengthy commutes, generous doses of time management. I learned to engage potential customers with ease, and how to best make a sale. The most difficult part of my job is the idle time between customers, my personality does not tolerate idle hands and my need to be productive becomes overwhelming at times. The most enjoyable part of my job is meeting new people and forming positive but fleeting relationships.

I have had the pleasure of working for Merrick pet care, and I can honestly say it is one of the best companies I have ever worked for. The support and encouragement from management is unmatched, and they truly care about their employees' well-being and success.

One thing that really stands out to me is the strong relationships Merrick has built with their retailers. They go above and beyond to provide the necessary tools and resources for their retailers to be successful, and are always willing to lend a helping hand when needed.

Overall, Merrick pet care is an awesome company to work for. They truly value their employees and foster a positive and supportive work environment. I am grateful to be a part of such a great team.

My position at Merrick is a Coating Operator. I learned a lot from working there and from my supervisor. The workplace is enjoyable everyone works as a team. The hardest part of the job was finding something to do when we were broke down. 
Being a Coating Operator I learned how to run my work area and also learned how to run everything else. I learned everything from production and that was the fun part that I got to run the extruders and also learn the meat part plus my work area. Overall Merrick was a good place to work at and I liked my supervisor he was a good Team Lead always showed us something new everyday.

Horrible place to work, they only care about production and making money and working nonstop, they don’t care about the employees at all, when I worked there the leads did what ever they wanted abs even drank on the job.
Having favorites was a problem there as well.
They lie and fire you like nothing and would talk to HR and seem like it was the employee that was bad.
Internal management relations and being married was another thing that was bad.
Besides working 12 hours a day and driving back and forth the pay is it worth it because you have no life. 
If all you want to do is work and be treated back than I recommend merrick pet care

Working with Merrick was great since it was a weekend job & gave me time to work my regular job durning the week. Fairly easy job if you like pets & people , only reason I quit is because Merrick doesn’t carry an foods that aren’t grain free and it’s been linked to cardiomyopathy in dogs & their also on the FDA’s list of foods that have been linked, which I just can’t support a company like that personally but other then that Merrick is great they treat you nicely & the pay is great. I also like that they send you your materials. Over all great company to work for

Management is a joke has favorites. If you are a “yes man/woman” perfect place for you to work. Safety department is a joke they just write up procedures and have you signed them to cover their butts. It gets worse with quality (cats in the building, roaches, salmonella positive food that the plant manager is trying to dump back in to not take a loss. I don’t know where Nestle finds these people because a lot of the upper management is transferred in are they rejects from other plants?

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get in in the work for the day and get all yuo need for the day

This was the worst place I have ever worked at. Management thought they were too good to communicate with the employees. Only time they would talk to you is was asking why aren’t you running? If you needed a day off for any personal or doctor’s appointments, they would make a big deal and would be angry. No advancement, won’t pay you for what you’re worth. No work life balance. 

For people that love pets, this is a company that fuels that passion. It's all-hands-on-deck, fast-paced, collaborative culture. Supportive teams that don't allow you to fail, and an environment that makes you happy to go to work everyday. High stress, but it's fun for those that thrive on that.
