Del Monte Foods Employer Reviews

A 100+ year old company with headquarters in San Francisco. The company has a very traditional culture and is somewhat family oriented. However, the pace is still fast and the people are bright and interesting to work with.

Great management staff giving much leeway and ability to shape the position as one as the job that is needed

This is a fantastic company to work for. They really value the contribution their employees make to the company. Employees are empowered to make decisions. Company invests a significant amount of time and money in employee development; however, local opportunities for advancement are limited.

Sold Delmonte products to District Managers in GA, NC,SC and Alabama. A typical day consists of scheduling appts. and selling product. I loved this position.

Del Monte Foods is a great place to work; it was my first time being exposed to this type of environment. The management team was good to me and helped me along the way. I learned a lot of the basics for being a plant supervisor. The most enjoyable part of this job was learning something every day.

the whole company was great. the benefits, pay, jobs, etc. were something to retire on.

the people who work inspecting fruit it can be hard on back but at least you have a fan on you. As a forklift driver the people are pretty respectfull and easy to work with.

Nice working environment. Smaller company so you dont get exposed to as many things as you would at a larger company

go to work and stand there and watch corn, or go to work and sharpen blades for a couple of hours and then change heads which takes about an hour then do almost nothing until 4 in the morning when we do clean up until 6 then we go home at shift change.

I was fortunate to work on every shift with awesome supervisors, which always gave me the opportunity to learn new skills and work on different machines. The management was almost always fair to everyone if they missed something that wasn't right they would correct it as soon as they became aware of the problem. Co-workers were very helpful towards – more... one another if someone had their machine break or a mess was made we would all help each other out. The hardest part of the job would sometimes be the lifting if machines broke down. Thankfully the supervisors wouldn't give us to much to handle, they always made sure we had enough help. The most enjoyable part of the job was working as a team as we did everyday. I honestly enjoyed going to work, working along side each one of my co-workers. – less

Processed and manged orders to ensure correct pricing, handled heavy phone calls. Monitored inventory at 3rd party warehouses and worked closely with PPIC and Supply Chain to make sure we did not have out of stocks. Traced PO's to confirm trucks were not late or had missed appointments. Ran queries daliy. My average fill rate for Costco was 99.2%.
We – more... had a great team and everyone was a team player and would step in if you needed help.
An example of the hardest part of the job is when you have to depend on driver and you don't have physical control if a load is missed.
I take pride in servicing the customer and I feel good knowing that at the end of the day I gave it 100%. – less

Worked from 7:30am to 4:00pm Monday-Friday. Responded to multiple phone calls & emails as well as maintained & processed customer purchase orders. Took action to meet demands. Recognized by employers and co-workers as reliable, cooperative team player who's always willing to share best practices. Able to multi-task.

Poor communication and senior management. Forced ranking reviews create an atmosphere that destroys a team mentality and creates a hostile work environment. Human Resource group is non-responsive to complaints which promotes poor senior management.

a typical day at Del Monte foods consists of about 95% email correspondence from brokers, sales , transportation and customers. It can be very challening at times , I run many reports for myself and other co workers daily.

The hardest part of the job is the amount of correspondence issues at one time that come in.

The most enjoyable part of the job – more... is the management and co workers I work with. – less

Great company to work for. Culture is awesome, involved in various charities.

Great place to work and amazing people that work there. The office has a nice view.

Oversee all plant and distribution operations of this peach cannery. Responsible for an annual budget of 9 million dollars per year. I have loved being a teacher and mentor to my staff of direct reports.

I have only worked for the past season but looking forward to working this season.

Although I would love to work for this company, I find their online application poorly constructed and inflexible. Additionally, they require that you fill it out over and over again for each position for which you apply.
