Stressful and fast paced

Senior Machine Operator (Current Employee) - Kitchener, ON - 22 September 2022

they expect to much work from their employees. the pay should be more for the jobs you know. Some people are friendly others not so much not very welcoming and accepting. Most days are very stressful not knowing how the day will turn out like call ins, short raw materials and having to stay late to finish the product run.

High Paced and High Potential

Process Engineer (Current Employee) - Kitchener, ON - 5 August 2022

After recently joining Freshstone Brands I have seen the great deal of potential the company has. The facility I am at is very dated but going through a major upgrade being pushed forward by the C-Suite. This definitely comes with a territory and understanding that you need to be creative, hard working, collaborative, intelligent and willing to pivot at a moments notice.

Pros

Heading in the right direction as a company overall

Cons

Previous management left a mess to clean up

Good workplace

The majority of the people were great to work with. Fast paced but manageable. Pay was low and benefits were not so great (why I left) but the people were great

Great place from which to hunt for something better

PRODUCTION WORKER (Former Employee) - Kitchener, ON - 7 May 2021

Co-workers are the absolute best.Management is stuck on policy -- nothing is negotiable unless it serves their purpose. Very little flexibility, complete inattention to staff requests, everything comes from the top down, no positive guidance from supervisory personnel, you get the idea. Equipment and facility could use an upgrade. GMP is tossed around as a concept but enforcement is lacking when issues are brought to attention.

Pros

Co-workers are fantastic!

Cons

Rarely work a 40 hour week
