Very good place to work if you are a hardworker and want to put in the hours
Breyers - Position Assistant Pasteurizer (Former Employee), Hagerstown, MD – March 12, 2013
I loved my time there because it allowed me to work 70 hours a week and take multiple shifts. Co-Workers weren't the greatest being in a situation where the plant was closing. Hardest Part was putting in 12+ hour days, but well worth it, enjoyable part was the fun with co-workers. I learned a lot in the manufacturing business side.

Teams will be better if all members have a positive attitude and work together to achieve the team goal.
