Ramar Foods International

From start to finish, from a to b, the company's treatment of me was outstanding. From the very first day I worked there, to the very last, working there was perfect in every way possible. There, I learned how to move quickly and efficiently with my co-workers, I learned to care about the products we were making, and I learned how to be very, very good at what I did -- and be proud of it. Honestly, I'd return to say hello to everyone, maybe hand a friendly hug-shake or two. Everyone I worked with was an ice-cream loving, beautiful individual. 

Did I mention that we made the best ice-cream in the world?

Aside from learning how to make ice-cream (and eating it), the only possible difficulty that is worth mentioning is probably the heavy lifting I had to do along with three or four of my co-workers at the last few hours of a shift. Imagine being in a freezer with cold, blasting air flying about your jacketed, semi-insulated body on ice, breaking ice sometimes in order to get the pallet jack and all the gallons of ice-cream to go through the just-large-enough metal doors, avoiding crushing a finger or two while you're at it. That's what I had to do at the end of nearly every day, five days a week.

Other than that, the days started off routinely for me: Get to work early, chat with my co-workers (about work or otherwise), dress in our protective gear, meet up with the leaders, come up with the product or work of the day, meet the daily quota of ice-cream bars, clean, sanitize, move on to the heavy-lifting in the blast freezer, "palletize," make sure everything was done and properly prepared -- done. Of course, there's the occasional variation, but what I described was the typical work day.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The IT department is very responsive. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Internal politics and persistent, unaddressed gossip created ongoing stress, which leadership did not meaningfully address.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment prioritized internal politics and personal alignment over professionalism, transparency, and merit.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day involved completing assigned responsibilities and adapting to  constantly changing priorities.

Management- Arrogant assistance branch manager at Kapolei. He wants the sense of control and power. In which staff feels intimidated. As a word of advice keep a written record of this branch manager attacks and criticisms for future reference.

The most enjoyable part of the job- easy job, staff work as a team. 

The hardest part of the job- working with the branch manager. I've saw 5 employees leave within a year and more still leaving. That tells you something.

Workplace culture-great 

 

DON'T WORK HERE: Poor management, poor benefits = unhappy employees. There are better places to work. Expectations were ridiculous with no real guidance of your job, and then they want you to be able to do everything. The drama was more overwhelming than the work, just pure lies from the owner. The culture they try to push is pointless because it is nonexistent in the workplace. No one buys into their culture because they don't really take care of employees.

I would not suggest working here for anyone! if you want to be constantly stressed out. Just being near the facility gives me a headache. The manager has a a pretentious, narcissistic, and an unapproachable attitude. If he spent time getting to be friends with his coworkers and lead them then he will be a better manager. They don't care about their employees and they are ready to replace, replace, and replace instead of keep, keep, and keep.

Good place to work as an entry level position. Management is active and will provide all necessary equipment to ensure job is done correctly. PTO is accrued twice a month. Pay is low and advancement opportunity is lacking. Laid back environment, music is ok, but can get extremely busy from time to time. Health, dental, vision, 401k
