Puratos

Terrible place to work.  This is the fifth company for whom I've worked, and I can confidently say that it was the absolute worst experience of my career.  

Major focus on performance, numbers, results, and deliverables rather than creating an environment that encourages you to grow and develop.  The worst part of the dynamic is that the operations/production teams cannot even produce the product that we are being pressured to sell.  

HR is completely disorganized with no leadership nor formalized improvement plans.  Goals are set halfway through the fiscal year and measured/assessed halfway after year-end.  Management lacks focus, direction, strategy, and decision making abilities.  

No attention to detail among anyone in the company.  Communication is terrible and you are lucky to get a response from your own coworkers.  

Again, I've never worked at a more unprofessional company in my career.  Congratulations, Puratos.

I prepare the quarterly current and deferred tax provision for 9 companies within the company and book a deferred and current tax expense to balance sheet and expense accounts.  At year end, I prepare a full blown year end tax provision to include the provision to return differences, Tax rate reconciliation, balance sheet rollforward, and Deferred effective tax rate factoring inthe state apportionment factors calculations. For the International Piece of the tax return, I prepare the 14 Forms 5472 as part of the consolidated federal tax returns.  As the company is a foreign-owned US Corporation, we need to report the dealings the US company has with the foreign company.  These are among the items reported:  Amount borrowed, Interest paid, Management fees, Purchases of Stock, Interest paid etc.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Even though I was the only woman on the production floor working I got the respect from my coworkers and I was training the new hires to work in scaling and drive a forklift I I worked just as hard as the men that worked there I was a good environment 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When someone called off we worked more but it was ok the day went by faster 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It was a good environment we all worked as a team and got the jobs done and we helped each other as a team 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Scale out the ingredients for the daily runs and worked on other department and we worked as a team even though I was the only woman on the floor I worked just as hard as the men did

12 hour shifts are standard.  I worked here as a temp for 90 days and everyone told me what an amazing job I did. My original contract was to be hired on as a full time QC Technician after 90 days as or be reassigned (fired). 

Instead of hiring me on full time for a fair wage they somehow amended my contract to another 180 days as a temp to hire! They paid very little as a temp to hire and the whole time I worked incredibly hard so that I would be hired on after 90 days. 

When they tried to keep me long term as a $10 hour temp instead of following through on hiring me full time as a $20 an hour employee with full benefits I quit. I wasn't born yesterday .

Corporate succubus is what this company is.

A typical day at work would have been getting on the forklift and start feeding procuction lines with packaging material. Day would go fast.
Learned to operate all the packaging machines on the wet side of the building in less than 3 years I worked for them.
The hardest part of the job was being harrased by management when they wanted something done and I wasnt even done what I first started.
The most enjoyable part was learning a lot of different things to do in differents departments of the facility.

Being a 20-year employee there were many changes throughout the years, first half of the time Puratos was the most exciting company to work for including the local management, being a part of process creation and improvement was great.  However, many changes came about including management change which resulted in personnel turnover.  Good safety culture, the most enjoyable part of the job was the first 15 years working for the company,

Great co workers, horrible management. Constant lies, one major one was there PTO system.  When applying the description said we'd receive 5 weeks of vacation. Making it all the way to orientation to find out it was a "typo" and operators don't receive PTO until there first full year.  One of the worst out of many things, management heard that a transfer from another plant wanted to return back.  Next thing you know he's fired.  

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing. There is no acceptance of outsiders. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
No training programs in place for safety, for jobs, for QA, ETC.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very Stressful and frustrating, and demeaning.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It's different everyday because everyone is reactivate instead of being proactive.

If you are in the click, you get some good bonus treatment. But if you are just a regular employee, you get shyt on. They promote their "friends", NOT those deserving a promotion. They have one or two good mechanics, the rest are an insult the the title. Their night shift mechanic sleeps most of the time and plays video games while he's supposed to be doing work. 

The management team in Cherry Hill is dominated by expats who think they're much better than the Americans that work for them.  All key managment positions have been filled to the most part by individuals from Belgium, who were unsucessful in prior positions and transferred to the USA to find a place for them.  They have poor management skills and are only looking our for themselves.  Turnover is high and employee morale is very low.
