GateGourmet Employer Reviews

The best supervisor I ever had and showed how to work and to to be successful my boss Francisco Diaz !!!! And to much favoritism with the union we have!!!!!

Before joining as a consultant, I used to work for a competitor. I spent many weeks at the L.A. facility trying to stabilize many of the HR issues that were overwhelming the local crew. Headquarters couldn't have cared less. I have never in all my years seen an organization so dysfunctional. Many of the managers were cast-offs from other airline catering – more... companies....some I knew had been accused of stealing company property. It was the "Sweat Hogs" re-born. There is no dignity with working for Gate Gourmet. Try LSG Sky Chefs or Flying Food Group if you want to be in Inflight. – less

Ol Fashioned, all boys club sort of company. hard to shift mindset and old way of thinking. left due to being overworked at their LAX facility...a mess to say the least...

The knowledge level, professionalism and commitment of the IT staff is very high, good people to work with.Great place to work with good work/life balance.

Check in and receive orders from companys vendors. Stock and rotate goods according to expiration date. I have learn to be paitent with others and work together as a team, and manage time wisely to avoid company overtime. My co- workers are great and fun to be around and together we knock out our work. There is actuall no hard part to my job, because – more... I was trained properly by staff. The most enjoyable part about my job is working together as a team and getting work done fast. – less

Its just like any other job I guess where you work hard and get almost no credit. The pay was decent.

Held morning meetings with my floor team to get them prepared for the work load & time restraints we had for the day. Also ensure they had all they need to have a productive work day

I've learned many skills & responsibilities of how to maintain an high pace work force...I was trained in dispatching & Microsoft word & excel. I was also allowed to grow – more... within the company

Management was very effective & was helpful in any area that i needed help in to maintain the productivity of my job

Their were hard spot but overall i rarely had a hard time at work

My most enjoyable moments for this company was coming to work & doing my job to the best of my abilities – less

Worse job ever. Working here feels like slavery is coming back. They work you real hard for little pay.

be able to fill up 14 airplanes in one hour in enjoy the different weathers.

For me, a typical day at work is about 9-10 hours of making salads & fruit appetizers in a large 40 degree cooler to be consumed by passengers on flights leaving LAX with our contracted clients. Management which communicates poorly with both the workforce & other members of management hinders progress frequently & creates a stream of misinformation – more... on a nearly daily basis. My co-workers are mostly very nice, happy people, but the vast majority of the workforce here is Hispanic & many speak little to no English, making practical communication very difficult at times. I enjoy making the items & learning about the airline food industry, but getting paid barely above minimum wage for long hours of work that is hard on your respiratory system, feet, joints, & back makes it difficult to maintain a positive attitude, especially when management is combative & not supportive. – less

No benefits, bad management , rotine, no body shows how is the job.supervisors with no qualifications for the job, temporary job !!!

A typical day at work is running on airline time. We're working at a fast paced environment that includes too much of hard labor. It's not rocket science but they sure go hard on all of us employee, I'm seeking for a better opportunity that will fill my goals.

Working at Gate Gourmet is an enjoyable experience. All of my co- workers are hard workers and the management staff is nice as well. The hardest part of the job would be the elements; although I am use to working outdoors, it does get quite cold in Memphis during the winter.

switcher would take the trucks to each door to get loaded. managers there dont work well with other.

The job that you are doing is not worth the salary. ITs hard to work here. Management wants you to be perfect and fast worker. Then they will pay you like you are a slave.....

I hope that United and Continental airlines would not get the contract from them. They don't even wash or wipe down there carts. They are filthy.

Managers and supervisors are – more... just walking around and acting like they know what they are doing.

United/continental needs to go down in the SFO plant in a surprise visit.... you should see the managers running around like in a panic mode..... There are a lot of things that are unsatisfactory.... – less

The shifts run 24 hours around the clock (based on the daily Delta flight schedules). At any given time there can be a sudden change in flight status or equipment. Very detail oriented atmosphere. I learned how to effectively communicate with several hundred different cultures. The co workers are very couragous and bold and love to pro - actively dominate – more... and own their assigned projects (i.e. FMLA, PAFs, Taleo & Ulti Pro Recruiting. The Management is very supportive and motivational. The hardest part of my job and have dual roles of an administrative clerk and a physical on site Public Relations Specialist. The most enjoyable part of my job is to be informative to those lacking information relevant to any urgent problem they may have. – less

is a good place for work.......... the employees are the opportunity the improve all your skills like managment

Was a first time factory based job were I learned loading and sorting beverages. I learned teamwork there. Management was nice. Co-workers were easy to work with. The hardest part of job was trying not to get dirty. the enjoyable part was the people I worked around.

My typical work day included catering aircrafts. The main thing I learned at Gate Gourmet was how to manage my time. Management didn't care to know what was going on when it came to their workers. My co-workers are dysfunctional...I'll just leave it at that. The hardest park of the job is dealing with the weather.

the hourly rate did not and deosnot match the work load.I find working at Gate Gourmet to be an eye opener,I say this bacause here we are in a work place in America where I"am supose to try to comunicate in spanish insted of english.
