Shearer's Foods, LLC Employee Reviews

Decent pay an overtime available but the work is hard and the environment is very hot. It is also slightly dangerous as hest exhaustion is a regular occurrence. There is also no raises for seniority and no room for job advancements or promotion..

Good work environment and the people were awesome

Packer (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 19 October 2022

Shearers was a great place to work. The people on my shift were great and I miss them all. Only reason I left was cause I moved out of the city but would definitely reapply if I move back.

Sooo unorganized

Cream maker (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 2 October 2022

The pt workers who are expected to help organize the lines and make sure they are running smoothly really only know anything about the packaging department and just yell at the oven workers when they need things done. The communication is lacking, management is nonexistent when it comes to how to actually do the job they just yell at you the safely guidelines wether they make sense or not. The production technician working line six is not someone who should be in charge of people

Clean and Great pay with Great Benefits

Food Packer/Inspector (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 24 September 2021

Wokring at Shearer's Foods was a fun and clean place to work. Not to mention they are all about food health and saftey of saftey practice for their employees. Met lots of nice people and of course you get the sour apples in the bunch. Miss working here. Can be fast paced but once you learn the jobs than it gets easier and it's fine. They pay for your lunch breaks, saftey shoes/boots, and saftey glasses. The benefits are amazing! Be prepared to do lots of change overs and lots of cleaning proto calls. Managment is alright, of course depening on your shift. They wear company uniforms, and have temps that work here. That was how I was hired on. You will get two 20 minunutes payed breaks, yes not very long but hey, it's paid! Get your foot in the door and won't regret it.

Pros

This manufacturer provides a toxic work enviroment for it's employees. Turn over of personelle is extremely high, and for good reason. Management needs a reboot.

It was ok.

Production Operator (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 15 January 2020

Good pay, bad hours. Bunch of workers laid off prematurely for changing clients and didn't tell me beforehand. I showed up for work and they said there isn't work for anyone anymore, why are you here? Thanks, traveled over 50 km one way to be told that.

Fast Paced, Opportunity for Advancement

Process Technician (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 7 November 2019

It was a great place to work with opportunity for advancement and always so much to learn. With the right attitude, you are able to move up. It's a typical factory job and it gets hot but the atmosphere is good for factory work.

Unfortunate

Line Worker (Former Employee) - Guelph, ON - 28 December 2017

Worked there for a while and it wasn't too bad until a couple safety concerns came up and because I reported it They wanted to let me to take less shifts until they just didn't call me for anymore shifts.
