New Pig Corporation

I have nothing but positive things to say about my time at New Pig. The job is interesting/challenging, coworkers and leadership are smart, supportive and forward thinking, and the work environment is second to none. Piggers are passionate about the products and brand; we work hard, smart and well together, and we have a great time doing what we do. The happiness and enthusiasm is contagious; we all truly enjoy the opportunities we're presented with not only in our current roles but also in the numerous training/development opportunities available to us. There are also plentiful advancement opportunities available based on merit/performance. There is minimal turnover unless it's due to promotion or transfer to another department because the company treats its employees as its most valuable asset and recognizes contributions towards individual, departmental and organizational goals. Loyalty and respect are a two-way street; we are effectively motivated and trusted and therefore productive and successful based on the commitment level we all have to one another and to the company as a whole. We're an established, financially stable organization that is also continuously growing and continuously innovative in our approaches which I appreciate on a personal level because that is the type of environment I thrive in and perform best at. We have various technologies and tools at our disposal to do our jobs to the best of our ability, producing the most accurate, efficient and meaningful work possible. It's very easy to work hard at New Pig and for this management team and I'm grateful to have found this organization right here at "home" in Central PA.

I have nothing but positive things to say about my time at New Pig thus far. It's nice and a nice change of pace to work for a company that values employee contributions and respects employee knowledge. New Pig continually invests in their employees and encourages them to keep moving forward, to keep learning, and to keep adding to the conversation. This is not your typical "it's always been done this way and this is only way to do it'' type of environment and that's rare. I appreciate and respect how they go about their business. The company is working towards upgrades in technology and processes. All companies can improve upon these areas and most say they are or will "get to it" but you see the commitment here. You see the investment both in new ideas and from a financial standpoint to never stop improving or creating efficiencies. I intend to be here for a very long time to come. This is a great company and management group. I believe continued success is ahead for this company and am ecstatic to be a small part of what is going on here, both now and in the future.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Stay away.  Low pay and nasty and mean people in the warehouse.  Supervisors will write you up when you’re trying to do the right thing when there are others who should be fired and not there and they look the other way. It doesn’t make sense.  Promised shift differential for going to second shift never got it

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Nasty folks and limited training

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxic  people at times.  Many safety hazards.  People get mad at you when you try to make a difference

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Many tasks and assignments to complete.  Steady work

A supervisor is only as good as the people he surrounds himself with.  
The most enjoyable part of the job is interacting with the staff; knowing their hardships and struggles, and sharing their fun times and their joys of life.  
Everyone has their specific tasks to work on throughout the day/week.  We work in a team environment to help others as needs arise.  
I've learned to remove "I" from my achievements and insert "we".
I can lead them and train them in their job functions, they can take the due credit as they succeed.

Manufacturing is very fast paced and demanding. Pay should be a little more for how much is expected from you everyday. But paid time off is amazing. Plenty of overtime is offered and the only way to make decent money though. They will allow you to work as much as you need. Performance has no impact on raises or bonuses. All employees no matter how hard you work or how little they work, you will get same raise and bonus. Very little career advancement opportunities as well. Overall a great company to work for with excellent benefits.

3 months short of 30 years of service, I got lay off via phone call. I took care of a customer for 25 years that I didn’t get to tell goodbye. Someone said I was close to retirement so I was a good choice. I loved my job and felt a gut punch when this happened. Pig does NOT call back people they lay off so in essence you are fired. 50 people felt that punch! No matter what a marvelous customer service you provide & how customers love you, ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD!

Learning a ton about the companies products and their international presense/strategy.  The culture is enthusiastic with a fanatic commitment to the customer which is great as a salesperson.  Hardest part is going to be competing in the international market as a smaller company.  Best is the sense of joy and pride in the work and supportive environment.  

The pay is great here and the co-workers make the work atmosphere amazing. If you're looking to develop skills in customer relations, New Pig does a profound job of training you to be a asset for the company. The skills I learned at NPC have definitely carried over to the job I have today. 
My favorite part of Customer Service was the ability to move into other departments of the Company continue to move up the ladder. The only drawback was the different shifts but those can be negotiated  every month.

Easy jobs, overall. Learned how to operate machines, about business culture. Room for advancement, equal opportunity to all. Laid back culture, unless it’s the busy season. Hardest post of the job, remembering you’re at work sometimes. The employees and most management are the most enjoyable part

What is the best part of working at the company?
Benefits, bonuses it's a job.  Not much to say about it 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Certain employees are micromanaging, some supervisors are not professional 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Uneasy , uncomfortable and always on eggshells with people
