Fresh Del Monte Produce Reviews

Pros

My salary and benefits are very good. My boss is great. I have autonomy in most of the day to day big business decisions and generally receive support for those decisions. Co-workers and peers are very dedicated.

Cons

Senior management must approve some very low level decisions such as replacing vacant, previously approved positions which slows the hiring process down, and they are slow to react to the current labor market conditions regarding salaries. There are other routine decisions that are slowed by the corporate bureaucracy, too. This is counter intuitive to the great deal of autonomy and support I receive for my decision making that impact much bigger issues.

Advice to Senior Management

Streamline many of the HR, IT and product management policies that make us a less nimble company, slow to react to markets in the different areas we do business in.

Pros

Great employee's who work together for the company

Cons

Senior Management issues and not paying market rate

Advice to Senior Management

listen to your employees more

Pros

The health benefits are very good

The company has a very diverse workforce both in age and nationality

The structure within departments is pretty loose so employees get a chance to work on projects that may not be in their job description

Cons

Resources are very scarce and the majority of departments are understaffed

Salary increases are dismal

Very little opportunities for career advancement except in product management.

Advice to Senior Management

There should be more focus on motivating employees and making them feel valued. Currently the company makes no effort to reward employees that go above and beyond, instead they are given even more responsibilities and forced to pick up the slack for coworkers who are merely performing at the status quo

Pros

good first job after college

Cons

no room for career growth
