The Wonderful Company LLC

my day would start at 3 a.m. clock -in, check orders for the day, Check all fruit we have available to run, check my lift, set-up lines accordingly to what we have available: bring out fruit bins, set-up RPC's if order requires it and size, have my box makers feed the line the box type needed for the orders and quanity needed so they know when prepare next set of boxes or come downstairs to prepare RPC's  for the next order, each line has 3 forklift drivers 1 to bring fruit 1 to bring pallets and other materials needed to keep line running and 1 to remove finished pallets to wrapper then to shipping, my operator would keep all tables filled, my PTI's controlled labels for finished pallets before being removed from line and keeping track of  pallets made per order and making sure they all get done and keeping track or sizes able to use per customer request , and my packers made sure everything is packed accurately in quantity and quality and at a efficient pace but all in all we all have to communicate and work together for everything to run smooth, efficiently and progress our skills in our positions my job duties was to make sure everything ran accordingly to plan and no mistakes were made to keep all areas clean and free of debris, write my reports on the board in the line and submit to my superiors at the end of the day , gathering everyone when they came in the morning into the cafeteria for safety meeting every single day and practicing those safety procedures to better protect everyone from any accident that can be avoided thru common sense and knowledge of these issues in everyday facilities and even at home. but overall it was one of my best jobs and sadly it was seasonal and i no longer live in the area to work next season.

Thought this would be a good company to work for considering the different company branches it has but boy was I wrong. First off I never seen employees  so scared of management . They show you how easy you can be replaced. I only worked there 3 months and seen 1 person quit because of stress at work and 2 others get fired. On my last days there I got a write up for not showing effort and I told them they hired me to operate the machines not stack boxes so I wasn’t happy with my position. Sure enough a few days later they give me my last check and tell me it’s my last day. When I asked if we get 3 warnings before termination ,they told me it’s an at will state( they can fire you for no reason). Shows me how much they care about their employees

Priorities change with the whims of company's owner. Some departments operate in constant fear of company's owner yelling at them for minutes on end if they make a mistake or do not have an immediate answer for her. Management pushes for results no matter what it takes -- little concern for helping employees do their best work. Management says they value efficiency, and yet employees spend much effort and stress producing often-useless reports and plans for company's owners. Turnover rate around 50% on some communications teams. Many smart and friendly people to work with, despite high stress. Company's owner heavily involved in philanthropy, positive impact in central valley communities - points of pride.

This is the worst company I've ever worked at. I'm not going to get into the messy details but I will say this...

Turnover is constant. They hire truly terrible upper managers. Everyone worries about losing their job and the owners who give great health care, are brutal to the rank and file. 

All you have to do is look at the jobs there. They constantly pop back up. Nobody except those who have the skill of hiding last very long. Communications director? 3 in two years. Creative director? Gone in less than 2. Print department? Three heads in 2 years and department turned over. Project management? Constant turnover. 

People get promoted and then fired within 6 months. It's insane. Human resources is garbage. Even they have had 3 people who were in charge of the agency in 2 years. 

Unless you have to work there (due to need), HARD PASS! I learned the hard way.

I feel the company has potential to be something that can be good in career advancement but management and training definitely lack. There is usually no proper training as it is a sink or swim approach which makes it difficult for employees that have different learning curves/approaches and does not fall into their "diversity" culture. The culture in the workplace is not great at all, every  man for themselves is the approach in my experience. When completing tasks it is extremely difficult to get time with upper management when help is needed and they are constantly in meetings, there is a lack of communication and vague expectations. 

First and foremost, Titles mean nothing, I had a room full of directors from the same department. The only way people there get a raise is through promotion. So it would not be odd to see a department of 5 all directors. However, the department heads promote without justification so its more of, who is your buddy rather than performance. Extroverts are promoted quickly while introverts pretty much don't promote at all. The business is built around extroverts personality. If your lucky enough to get into a department that supports both as a team, and there are a couple within the corporation the job is awesome.  If not, you will be pushed aside until you quit.

Wonderful is a mixed bag of good intentions and middling execution. The company is at its best when presenting itself as not entirely profit-driven. It generally succeeds at this with philanthropic endeavors and company events.

Depending on the department, there can be a surplus of middle managers who struggle to  justify their existence. This was my experience with one manager who was a good resource for his subordinates and another who offered lame machismo posturing and little else.

The department culture had an ethos of low trust and recrimination. An "us against them" mentality was sold as a survival mechanism, but it rang of a lazy cynicism.

Ultimately, I learned what I needed and stopped caring about the rest. 

It’s hard working for a company that has no autonomy. You have to do as they say or you’re out. Very Top Down Approach. No partnership for development and growth. Culture and morale was at a constant low. They pay better than most other companies but forces you to give up much of your own happiness. No life work balance. Management will do and say what needs to get to tomorrow. The hardest part of the job is working for people that only care about their self interest. The most enjoyable part of the job is hoping the mission works regardless of the bad culture. 

The company treats you like family, always willing to help, consistent training so you never feel behind or if you need refreshers, the benefits are great, my wife is a nurse and is on my insurance plan, ton of PTO and can use it whenever you like, most if not all major holidays off (paid) even the day after on some holidays, ongoing incentives to keep you engaged in your work and make a little extra. Overall great place to work. 

Enjoyed my four years working at the Wonderful Company. I left because I moved to be in another state with my family. The executive in the wonderful marketing department was fair and gave recognition when deserved. My co-workers were great and we all worked well together. The companies benefits are one of if not the best out of all the companies I've worked for over the years.
