Golden Valley Farms

The supervisors I had there will just harass you especially call you lazy even when they do absolutely nothing all day only ever see them show up often if health and safety shows up you have to learn the machines basically on your own lucky I had one of the other employees help me learn a little better they really need better training you shouldn't get thrown into something it's not safe they also had another employee there with huge anger issues who was a complete child causing fights etc etc but didn't seem to care other then that if you wanna work here be prepared to get highly frustrated.

In the past, GVF was a pleasant place of employment.  Everyone in management had a mutual respect for one another and their abilities. We felt appreciated and all put in that extra effort.  Staff in the plant were also content.  
With some longterm employees retiring and changes to upper management, the atmosphere has changed greatly in the last few years.  Many employees would gladly find employment elsewhere if possible but being a small town they prefer to stay put.  Staff morale on all fronts is poor.

Very few employees will help you if they see you struggle,  you are basically on your own. No training at all . Anything brought to hr is never dealt with,  only good thing hr is good at is planning celebrations, nothing work related.  Go through employees more then toilet paper,  the more you know the more you have to do, even if it means doing 3 peoples jobs,   so much bullying and they allow it, nothing is done if you go to hr    many people don't even go cause it's a waste of time . This place is a joke!!  

This was a great place to work.  The staff are super friendly and hard working.  Management could be slightly better.  When you ask for things that will help you do your job more efficiently you are usually told "no" and that "this is how it has always been done".  They do a lot for their staff.  Hockey ticket raffles, one free lunch or cake each month.

This is a meat packing place you work on a line. Its fast paced and I found it hard to keep up. I was glad to be hired they have a great benefit package. There breaks are great and they supply the uniform and boots. Although I wasn't suitable for the position I found the opportunity really rewarding. I you can keep up to the pace dont mind the cold it's a great place e to work.

The people are great to work with.
Up to date and advance technology for Production and Food Safety.
They invest in continuous improvement 
But the processing areas are very cool.  Even in the summer you are wearing long johns

Worked there though temp agency, got hurt and was off for injury and was then let go for no reason because of injury.
Afternoon lead hand and supervisor were not helpful at all

.its cold. Fast pace. You're expected to learn quickly, it was stressful working with older workers, expectations were high to be good at everything. 

Nice place to work, diamond in the rough Very nice people, very organized. Great Production Manager. Great structure very sound core values. Excellent trained staff..

When it is busy it is productive and it is a decent place to work. Like any other place it does have its flaw but it pays decently and is alright
