Premier Brands of America Inc

A typical day at Premier Brands of America starts early. Very work focused, while managing friendly attitudes amongst everyone. I've learned how to communicate and collaborate more professionally while also learning what I need to do to not only perform my job as needed, but the steps needed to go even further and beyond. The culture at Premier is very family oriented, having many different groups of varying kinds of people, leading to an amazing melting pot of different cultures and ideas. The hardest part of the job is trying not to disappoint the people I work with, as they have taught me so much, all I can do is do a good job at my job, to do right by them. The most enjoyable part of my job is talking with all my other fellow employees, and learning about them. Their stories and experiences often help me to engage with them further, creating and expanding my connections and networks.

Have you ever heard about companies who treat people so badly and drive them so crazy, they quit without having another job?  

If you are a masochist and are looking to be degraded, yelled at, disregarded and verbally abused, look no further.  

If you are interested in what it might be like to work in a sweatshop in a third world country, again, this might be for you.

If you want to be productive and give great input and suggestions, only to be interrogated, questioned, be put on the defensive, and distrusted on a daIly basis, no matter what your education or experience level, come on in.

If you think painting a hundred year old factory every time a customer, auditor, or assesor comes in to look around covers up problems, you have arrived.

Good luck.

P.S. Beware of the word "competitive" in reviews. They are fake for sure.

I've been working at Premier Brands for almost 5 years & I couldn't be happier. Projects are fun to work on & there is always something new to learn. When I was hired I didn't have much experience as a graphic designer & my team was great in helping me figure things out & learn new skills. I have learned so much with the company & they are always giving me the tools I need for success, whether it's help with a project or helping me take a class to further my skills. My coworkers are all very friendly & the work atmosphere is great. There is always someone willing to help you if you need it. If there was something I wasn't sure about it was always easy to ask someone & get the necessary answer. There are many scheduled events for everyone to bond with summer BBQs, Ice Cream Socials & a Multicultural Day. The funnest part of my job is working on a new project, it really helps me diversify my skills by trying a new project.

I worked in the main office at Premier for over 2 years and had a great overall experience. It is a small family run manufacturing company which meant that I had direct access to Senior Management. Our days were fast paced and we all wore several hats and got to experience all the different aspects of Manufacturing. 

During my employment at Premier, there were a lot of improvements made to the infrastructure of the Factory and the workplace culture. The restrooms, cafeterias and entrance were all demolished and redesigned. They organized summer BBQs, Ice Cream Socials, Potlucks and other events that allowed us to interact with the entire company.  It is the only place that I have worked at that gives Thanksgiving turkeys to every employee. 

I was sad to leave the company and my coworkers.

Avoid this place like the plague. Management/HR do not care for you. Nor will they ever have your back. Anything you do, is a problem to them. Whatever it is, it's always your fault. Nobody takes responsibility for their actions here. Especially management. If you think they will lead by example, think again. They only apply certain rules to certain individuals when it's convenient for them. There's blatant favoritism left & right. And the workers are lazy/nosy snakes in the grass. They spend more time being preoccupied with what other people are doing rather than focusing on their work & letting people just be. This is not the place to work at if you expect to have any kind of growth.

Premier brands is the best family and friend oriented environment to work in. The best thing is the diversity of people in this workplace because it makes everyone feel welcomed. So many hardworking employees who are dedicated and motivated to accomplish their daily goals. It’s amazing to see the commitment in these employees and the loyalty to the company. Most of the employees have been working for 15+ years and are still motivated to their jobs. Very generous company with their employees, many events, appreciation breakfast, birthday cards, annual bbq’s, thanksgiving and Christmas holiday dinners. Everyone is very friendly and always willing to help others. 

I really like working here, it doesn't require too much from me and everyone here is super nice and accommodating. I come in, settle down, and do what I have to do. The work is definitely NOT overbearing and even if it is, there are so many people you can reach out to for help. A typical day at work would be coming in, greeting everyone, settling down, looking over what I have to get done, and doing what I have to get done. I gained a lot of experience here regarding my area of work. I'm now confident in working with other employees and helping them out. Management here is great, no one is intimidating and it's a super friendly environment so you can ask for help anytime. 

It may seem like a good idea when you first start because they try to feed you a positive narrative, but just beware. The whole idea of a family environment is a total scam unless you’re upper management. They tend to overwork you especially if you exhibit initiative and solid work ethic. Do not even get me started at the laughable compensation they offer. If you have a family to feed, you better be prepared to take a second job to supplement your income that they give you here. 

There is also high turnover and a serious issue of long term retention for people who do get hired. Choose another company that actually appreciates and values your work. 

This was the most misdirected company I have ever worked for. It is reminiscent of a sweat shop where the majority of  green card workers are treated as dispensable subordinates  with no value. The working conditions are the worst. the plant is overrun with vermin, employees work in an unventilated basement and unfair labor practices are the norm. 5 minutes late will cost you a 1/2 hour off your time card, a practice which is illegal in NY.  .Minimum wage prevails, no benefits, no training and no growth.  When they do happen upon a good employee, they don’t respect him/her. Underdeveloped SOPs, little to cGMP training .

Who ever wrote the good reviews must have been thinking about a different company.  The cafeteria and rest rooms were not demolished.  They were painted.  And painted terrible colors and sloppy. All the same old stuff was still there. The management rules by pressing everyone every minute and cutting corners. The Rats and roaches make it not safe. Employyes are not good at reading and writing so they stay.  The hardest part is feeling dirty and terrible when you leave for the day. You don't know what you could be bringing home with you. A lot of chemicals go into the products so sometimes it is hard to breathe.  Managers have no appreciation at all.  A dead end from all sides.
