Typical day busy but overall there was poor management, poor compensation/benefits or advancement for the work that was done or completed as well as poor working tools. All machines stayed either messed up or torn down due to being so old and worn out. There was supervisor but supervisor never seemed to know what was going on or how to fix problems or why the problems occurred as well as not being able to handle controversy between workers instead of finding or resolving the problem it got ignored most the time. Never felt like they job you done was appreciated or you where ever considered especially when owners either wanted more work out of you, they didnt want to compensate you for the more work they wanted. It was an all around bad working environment. As well as it being a Candy Company where the candy is made the supervisor dipped and spit tobacco during production/making of candy and allowed some other men co workers to spit/dip tobacco to as well during production/making of candy, there where times spit or dip would fall out of co workers mouth either land on floor, candy production line/table or even in some cases on the candy its self or other co workers. Bugs all over the place and rat/mice poo on the candy tables where hot candy syrup falls out of cooker to table to make candy. Really disgusting working environment/area and co workers!

My day started by driving to the store I was working in that day.
My longest distance was a hour and 22 minutes away.   I go in speak to my store manager for a few minutes, I started breaking down my totes.  I called the manager to come check my product in 
and then I put it away.  I checked my products for out of dates 
and then I placed a order on my palm for the next week.  I scanned 
in the credits and the manager checked the credit.  I dusted and 
straightened my area said my see you next week, then off to the next store.  The thing that was sometimes hard was when the totes
were overloaded.  This made them very heavy.  Then sometimes they stacked them over my head high.  I loved the people I meet
in the stores and the store employees.

At first things seemed fine but it slowly started going downhill and kept getting worse. Upper management kept changing everything and we were constantly told we were doing everything wrong. The management is terrible, two supervisors in particular have terrible attitudes and both have high turn over rates. They work you to death out there and don't have set hours, so you don't leave till you finish. On top of that the pay is terrible for the majority of positions there and the shear amount of work and nonsense you have to put up with isn't worth what they pay. I highly advise anyone that's reading this seek employment elsewhere.

Recent changes to management seem to have helped calm down the petty drama that we were becoming used to. I here that pay is much more competitive all around recently as well. I feel like my coworkers are back to actually having to work and not skate by. Pickrate based pay has helped. Equipment is still old but occasional newer stuff is showing up.  Conveyer belts finally runnin and that should help us work better. Medical dental and vision are good but vacation and sick time need improvment. 

Employees are great people. Management needs an overhaul. EVERY ONE in the management WILL lie against you in the event something goes wrong. There are "favorites" and you won't get a raise. You WILL be promised one but never receive it. If the staff could be replaced, it would be a great place to work. Self centered supervisors who push the work on you while its a playground for them. Snotty upper management while the pay scale is horrible. Better off bagging groceries.

fun job, even on the bad days it was still fun, never had problems with coworkers or management, however the plant manager can be extra. easy hours 5am to 1pm and easy work load pretty consistent on work load weekly. however some truck company were unreliable and late.  just and overall fun job and great time

I really like my job.  Been here a couple years now and watched it change for the better. New generation comes in and doesn't want to work, but occasionally one does and they fit right in.  Love who I work with and for. Awesome job. 

This is a great company to work for, lots of employee perks and opportunity to earn a great pay. They expect you to work hard, but it is rewarded. There are longer days during busy seasons, but it balances out. The coworkers make the job well worth it.  Overall a great culture. 

Co-workers are great to be around. The job itself isn't. You expected to basically work 2 jobs at the same time and get payed very little. Management doesn't seem to know what they are doing and switches things up at the last moment with no regard to the employees. 


Each day I worked at Stewart's Candy Co. it was absolutely horrible. 12+ hour shifts with very low hourly pay and horrible overtime pay. The working conditions are absolutely horrible and the working environment its dangerous.
