This place is a joke. Your work is not measured according to good behavior, work ethic, following GMP, or acknowledging basic safety guidelines otherwise enforced in general in the industry. No, your work if you are a forklift operator is judged by mathmatical algorithms and data entry. How much product you move through the warehouse tracking system determines your entire net worth as an employee. So naturally this encourages cutthroat behavior among employees (who can scan the most the fastest) and results in a disorganized jumbled mess of an inventory system (it's been entered into the system, my work here is done, someone else can put it away). Shifts rotate in ridiculous increments that I haven't made sense of. Example: you work at 5pm one week (get home at 5am), then you go in at 3pm the next week (get home at 3am), then you think you go in at 1pm because hey it's logical....but no, you somehow are scheduled to go in at 9am after being there until 3 in the morning. They claim it's for employee equality but that makes zero sense to anyone with a brain and experience in this industry. By far the worst is what you sign when you're hired. 90 day probation just like most jobs, and then after that's completed you are considered a hired employee and are told you will receive a wage increase once evaluated. But if you "underperform" and fail to please the data entry algorithms they just extend your probation at the same wage. Rather than let a person go, they will use your labor at the same reduced wage throughout the season until you find somewhere else that won't jerk you around and leave you exhausted and irritated.

Receiving the loads that are coming in and inputting the cargo information into our database. Making sure all the cargo has the appropriate information so it could get put away to its designated areas. After my day is done in the back office, head to the main office and work one of the windows.  I input the cargo information that is going to be shipped out for  each individual load, and proceed to bill them out. I also answer calls and respond to our clients questions to the best of my abilities or direct them to the appropriate personal. In this working environment I've learned to work and interact with a variety of different ethnicities. The management in this facility varies because our supervisor is a very outgoing, reliable, and understanding person. Although in the other hand our manager lacks in his people skills and has a very bad temper. My work environment is very easy going because I get along with all my co-workers and they are always there to lend you a hand. The hardest part of my job is the everyday commute, which consists of a two hour drive to and from my work. The most enjoyable part of my job is working with a great team of people that I consider as my family.

I earned great office and customer service experience in this job. Many of my duties involved the computer including creating worksheets, maintaining daily inventories, creating work orders for production to complete, and receiving product into the system, shipping out product. Made lasting work relationships with all those I worked closely with. The hardest part of the job was reporting when production wasn't doing too well due to the quality of onion from the field. The most enjoyable part of the job was working closely with the shipping office, salesmen, forklift drivers and foremen to make sure everything ran smoothly.

The problem lays in having the same HR Head for years and not challenging the status quo. If you seemed to be a Threat to them theyll term you before your 90 days. If you show any intelligenxe and uncover major errors you've just sealed your separation of employment. This company would be so AWESOME if the CEO or the Board of Directors Revamped the Human Resources Department from the Top to Middle Management. Stay away from this Department they work as a Clic and cover their Major ERRORS because they are Friends. T&A is not same since its Founders Passed Away.

We would be scheduled to work at 4 a.m. to start working at 7 a.m. because of travel arrangements.  It was hard labor and fast paced during working hours.  I learned how to be a good team player.  Management was very understandable and they always had an open door policy.  Had great co-workers, and we had such a great work environment.  The hardest part of the job would be weather conditions.  The most enjoyable part of the job would be going to work everyday with such a great group of people.

Working at Tanimura & Antel was a great experience I learned allot and grew with the company. It a safety first environment they have great hours they offer overtime they also have a great medical vision and dental plan they offer the 401k program they pay sick days also you accumulate vacation time this are some of the benefits the company offers company also offers to travel to other sights. Great coworkers I really enjoyed working for this company and would highly recommend it.

Loved my job here, always had fun, but felt like it took alot away from my family, the hardest part of the job was dealing with some workers who had criminal records and when out in the field you deal with all sorts of people and it just seemed like the company never cared who they hired just as long as they can do the job. management was good if you knew who your foremen would be, all foremen were different. Here i learned what a long hard working day really means.

$9.50 starting pay, training by awesome leads but unfortunately English communication is very very limited. It’s a watch and learn situation. As for management or a lack there of, it’s a “ mine is bigger than yours” sonario. So when it comes down to employees management does not step up nor step in to help you succeed. More adding fuel to the fire. A 10 year old would be more professional organized and have more knowledge than the management at this company.

A typical day at work was very busy and fast paced. I learned any things about the agriculture industry. I also became proficient at driving and operating forklift machinery. Management was very friendly and easy going. My co-workers were hard working men whom I learned from daily. The hardest part of the job was working up to 12 hour shifts but it was worth it. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with others and making connections in the agriculture business.

Mostly working in the fields fixing pipes or moving them. Digging of postholes and putting up fences. Mostly manual labor and driving tractors around. Spraying of weeds and plants. Different jobs such as picking of berries or vegetables may be looked into. Lunch is whatever you decide to bring. Management is good. Foreman comes and checks to see how everything is going. Hardest part is the social aspect, basically your day is gone and being on the phone is frowned upon. Always work to be done.
