Tyson Foods Inc.

Working at Tyson Foods was very emotional and stressful. I gave them 18+ years of my life. As a manager my job was to protect the team members but everytime I stepped up to unsafe behaviors I was reported to HR that I was singling them out or being agressive. Hard to address unsafe behaviors if you can't talk to the person about it. Did not matter how I approached them, they all got offended. Maybe someday safety will be the number one priority.

It was good job for me , my supervisors were very nice. The pay was good . I had the opportunity to meet with different people and share cultures with them. It was like family.

Tyson foods Waterloo Iowa has been rated top 10 places to work at. They care more about the product then its people.

Absolutely the best place I have ever worked! Yes it was stressful at times and the demands were a lot at times. However, culture is amazing. I came to love these people. Promotion within the company is readily available for those who work hard. I was there for 16 months and had two promotions.

Worked there 27 years. Worked with friendly and unfriendly people. You can work your way up. Transfer to try other departments

I began my work experience here and i was given an opportunity to serve without any form discrimination. Tyson food is a good place to start.

Worked there for almost 3 years and corporate decides to close down the plant and over 250 employees lost their jobs. Handled poorly and very inconsiderate of their employees.

This company wasn't what they make it out to be you had supervisors leads screaming at you VERY unprofessional I'd bring it to plant management but...it seemed that nothing got done about it, since I worked on a professional bases I wouldnt get acknowledged when i filled out application's to move forward, I've college behind me business management, my prior yrs of working in a professional field I carried with me in this company, I also tried moving when they closed its doors but...they drug their feet so they didnt have to pay the $5k bonuses but...I could go on but...I'll end it here

Nice place to work friendly work environment with opportunities to move up in your career and a good company that has good benefits

I gain a very good experience when I was working at Tyson Foods, Portland Maine. As an AHT, I was also helping people with languages barrier on translating.

I was able to learn aspects of occupational health nursing. I enjoyed working here. Management was supportive and respectful.

Toxic Plant Environment: Poor Organizational Structure & Leadership Training The plant environment I experienced was marred by toxic management practices stemming from a flawed organizational structure and insufficient leadership training. Hierarchies were rigid, stifling communication and collaboration. Decision-making was centralized, causing delays and missed opportunities. Unfortunately, leaders lacked the necessary skills to guide and support their teams, resulting in micromanagement and dissatisfaction. Fear and stress permeated the workplace, hindering creativity and productivity. To remedy this, restructuring the hierarchy for transparency and autonomy, along with investing in comprehensive leadership training, is crucial. A healthier, more productive work environment can be fostered by addressing these issues head-on.

I really enjoyed working 3rd shift at Tyson on Tyler Road in Russellville. Coworkers and Management were very nice to me and helped me to get trained on alot of areas quickly. I made alot of friendships along with meeting alot of other people that I would be able to build relationships with. Overall as long as you stay out of others business and relationships, it is a great place to work. Pay and benefits are good. Jobs there are easy.

My role at Tyson Foods was great until my team became the team that was passed around from org to org with no appropriate knowledge of my team’s function. We were pushed to the side and mostly forgotten about. I spent the last two years on my team with no direct leadership, no goals, no strategy, no vision, no top level down communication, no growth, no support and no chance at all for advancement. Also, don’t ask too many questions about what’s going on with the team and why there’s no leadership…you may lose your job for it.

I found Tyson to be a great, supportive, place to work. the care and attention paid to their employees made me wish I'd found Tyson decades ago. Upward professional opportunities are abundant.

This company was a good place to work for, I never have a complaint about anything, I have very good training and I work in several projects to save money and learn how to maximize production with less cost and implementing new equipment to avoid bottle neck in certain areas, always with a good working environment.

If you ever thought of going to school and/or continuing your education, this company has Upward Academy Online education benefit. Tyson will pay 100 percent of tuition up front for 175+ fully funded programs now available through Upward Academy Online. Tyson Foods has a $4000 dollar bonus for new hires paid within 120 days of been employed. Tyson is a great place to work and grow.

My job was very fun and interesting. The only problem i had with my job was the hour drive i had to make.

Not organized Poor recognition Poor work life balance. Long hours. Wet and cold environment. Team Members are not reliable.

Stand long hours weekly pay extremely cold lots of opportunities for advancement lung respiratory infections

I was one of the first employee's to start up the plant in Vienna Ga in 1994. It started under another na.e and a year later Tyson Foods bought them out i worked at that facility for almost 10 years until relocating. During that time the pay was pretty good but today i hear it's much better and all of the benefits was great and are still in place today. So i would like to try Tyson again today. The Moto use to be Feeding u like Family. It may be the same today.

....their IT department laid off 330 people. Outsourcing all support areas, and seemingly randomly picked off people.

The salary and benefits are good but in the end all they care about is production and their bottom line.

It's a ok place to work, if you don't like drama and a stressful job then this isn't the job for you, also the hours are long and you spend alot of time away from home. Your work life becomes your home life. Pay is decent, you can aquire alot of overtime which is nice. Working inside the plant is not a job for the ladies. Etc

My boss seriously would tell you & agree to whatever didnt matter that he also just told someone something totally different. Same story for the next person. Caused alot of drama

Love the people and the pay was good. Great company to have pride in what you do each day. New leadership has pushed many people out the door so trust has been lost.

The managers are very ignorant to the employees. You don't care that you have a personal life or children all they care about is that you come to work do your job so they can stand there and yell at you in front of everyone else that you're doing it wrong.!

I was raised around the chicken houses that produced the chickens for this poultry plant. A lot of my family worked for the company.. Great benefits in every direction you need them.

I absolutely loved Tyson foods and wished I’d had never left. Great environment and family oriented.

I worked at the tyson in vernon tx for 8 years i was a teamleader and a jackdriver when i was needed to be

First of all i would like to thank god for everything Secondly i like thanks for tyson for the opportunity I like to work for tyson
