Big Heart Pet Brands Reviews

Pros

Great leadership and teammates here in Pittsburgh.

Cons

Smuckers bought the company unfortunately.

Pros

Lots of changes, little communication

Cons

Poor communication to staff and many surprise changes

Pros

Lots of overtime, good 401k match, Monday-Friday, decent pay

Cons

Management, lots of overtime, health insurance

Pros

- competitive pay - good location - nice facilities with onsite gym and mother's room - very well established processes - brands with advertising are more fun to work on

Cons

The company is in transition from Del Monte to it's own brand newly called Big Heart Pet Brands. There is a lot of turnover where management is suddenly fired as well as more junior people. There is a culture of sink or swim. There is very little training for ABMs. People are expected to "fall in line" where collaboration and speaking your mind is not welcomed. There is very little innovation that happens on most brands and most of the work is looking at historical numbers and you feel there is little you can do to actually convince management to change what's wrong. Management is out for themselves and lack care towards junior people.

Pros

Great people and leadership that genuinely cares. Flexible schedules depending on your manager, free on-site fitness classes

Cons

Limited career opportunities in SF now that HQ is in Ohio. Lots of the best people have left/are leaving.
