Vantaggi
Many of my coworkers I counted as close friends. Additionally, my team relied well on one another and we often approached challenges as a unit.
Svantaggi
This is the worst place I will ever work. The days are indefinitely long (11-13 hours) and the company engages in extensive wage theft. I was underpaid by $10,000, and bonus metrics were often set at unattainable, ludicrous levels. Although I worked a substantial number of weekends, I can count on one hand how many times I was compensated despite contractual obligation. Opportunities for women and minorities beyond supervision are limited. Managerial meetings were shockingly homogenous, even by poultry industry standards. I'm a highly analytical person and it took me all of 3.5 weeks to observe that I had reached the height of my advancement despite previously holding a manager's position and being promoted multiple times within my last company. My boss even openly sabotaged an opportunity with another company, because he felt it was unfair that he had worked in the industry for 10 years yet had never received the same opportunity. (He also was a C ag student in college and I graduated from a prestigious program with all As.)
