Standard Meat Company

Must speak Spanish to survive, management yells are you fornot understanding her language when 80%of the workers speak Burmese. There is no translator for Burmese speakers. Management doesn’t solve issues that result in chemical burns. HR gets people in trouble by saying they are allowed to go back late after speaking with them, then firing people that day. Beef side works 6am-6pm all week so if you have business to tend to you have to request it off 2 weeks in advance. People get fired for going to the hospital. People get fired if they complain about being bullied or injured. We are told 45 days as a temp then hired on, yet nobody has been hired on in less than 4 months. Ask anybody who has worked her, it’s a terrible company to work for.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Learning different machinery and multitasking with process at the same time with multiple jobs

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
To many supervisor and not enough workers to do the job

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
In my opinion it was a good work environment and would like to work for the company again. And had not one of my co-workers hit my parked car in the parking lot I would still be working their.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
All day work preparing and working my area

Typical work day is inspection and correcting unsafe acts.

I learned working with people is essential.

Management is good.

Stress free.

Channels to navigate for equipment could be long.

Predominately, Spanish speaking workers, followed by Asians and Black ethnicity.  Fast paced, however,  hard to do a job (good) when you are English speaking and you are instructed by showing and pointing which way meat is suppose to be placed on a converter belt when you can't ask questions that are not going to be explained in english to understand the complicity of the task. Then being placed in a position that requires strength of a weight lifter to place slabs of ribeye which weighs 25lbs or more.  Felt overwhelmed.

Promised to be hired on at 45 days, but in reality it’s 4 months. 
Workers are 60% Burmese speaking, 39% Spanish speaking, and 1% everything else. There is a bullying issue that goes unhandled. Lots of discrimination.
Management does nothing about major issues. HR fires you after telling you to do a certain thing, or approving you to do a certain thing. People have been getting wrongfully terminated every single day. Do not apply here, they rarely hire people on.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Lunch provided once a week and drinks provided everyday.  Very good atmosphere. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Some workers being ugly to you because of your race.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Overall really good everyone accepted,  treated bad by select few.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very good not stressful all around good place.

Company does not require you to speak or read English or have a certain level of education. The management team is helpful and the company has many employee program perks. The benefits are amazing and at low cost. On your first day they supply you with a freezer jacket and pair wool socks.  

Since my short time at the Company, I have seen truly how good they take care of their employees. Every Monday is a free lunch for the entire team at all the facilities, we just had a huge company outing for the associates and our families at Six Flags. While the prices of everything are going up, this remarkable company has proven to stay above the competition. Thank you, Standard Meat Company, 

Too much favoritism for people who are related to supervisors and entitled to do as they wish. There is no team work in this company. There is toxic people in upper management and do as they wish.

Language barrier, favoritism, not enough personnel to handle workload, hours went down , feel like is more about quantity than quality. Upper management can't communicate with you, leads, or supervisors.
