Rousselot

Work at Rousselot can be a bit frustrating because of cultural issues and poor management choices. The plant is more or less falling apart and they do just enough to get by day to day instead of investing in long term solutions. There is a lot of turnover, probably because people try to make improvements and run into a brick wall of intransigence, bureaucracy, or apathy. They don't know how to retain good people. You can expect independence and no micromanagement, and scheduling is somewhat flexible. Management is easygoing in all the good ways but also in the bad ways. When people make poor choices they are not held accountable and everyone knows it, so bad behaviors continue. I am not hopeful about the long term prospects of this company due to product quality issues. Work is a bit repetitive in certain roles, and they usually don't overload your schedule until something goes terribly wrong. Which happens a lot.

I spent the first two months of my assignment working in the Customer Relations Department.  I worked with 4 others in the department helping them fill orders, updating Excel spreadsheet information, filing and shipping sample orders.  I had never worked in a manufacturing environment before and found it to be very busy and challenging.  The hardest part of the job was probably the number of training sessions I was required to go to and then apply the information quickly to the work I was doing.  It was so busy there it was difficult at times to interrupt someone to ask a question.  The last month of my assignment was spent working in the HR Department helping the Assistant HR Director.  I thought the people I worked with were very hard working and considerate.

Rousselot wasn’t a bad place to work. From my perspective management and most of my co-workers were good. The job itself was fairly easy, and the pay was very good. You work 7 days on 2 off 7 on 2 off 7 on 3 off. You are required to work weekends and holidays. If you can accept that, this is a good place. If you get stuck on 3rd shift you will rarely see your family. 

Great entry level work for someone fresh out of college or struggling to find a job. Tasks are not difficult, but they are tedious and the work-load can be quite heavy. Terrible work-life balance, expect to work 6 days a week and 90% of holidays.

safety is stressed occasional benefits, gift cards and food trucks. secure job , union environment overtime is offered and some is forced.  major remodels and upgrades every year.

Love working there. There is always the stress of the doors closing because it's is a very old company trying to survive in a modern age. HR is amazing with helping employees.

Great Place to work with a great work/life balance. Great overall company culture and management truly cares about their workers. Great break rooms. minimal stress.

The company has the worst management ever, lack of communication between the departments, no one cares about you , don’t waste your time at this company!

Rousselot is a global firm with multiple sites. The organization has a very strong global corporate team and provides quality driven products to its customers.

was working well I thought, till I made a mistake on something I wasn't trained to do ie: tried a new technique
