Avoid working for them, it's not worth it
ex employee, thank god (Former Employee), simplot Moses, fry plant – January 23, 2013
Pros: if you figure out how to work the system you will fit right in
Cons: if you have any ethics at all it wont take you long to figure out you are in too deep.
I have never in my years worked for a company where management sits so high above the workers in the plant that they cause a rift of decention so big it can never be mended. Management is a group of good old boys and if you are not one of the club they make you an outcast. Lack of morals runs deep here.

If money and benefits is your only goal, then this is your company.
Employee Service Representative (Former Employee), Idaho – January 14, 2013
Pros: good pay and benefits
Cons: no work/life balance, negative reinforcement management style, politics.
This company thinks of employees as a numbered resource and nothing more. They use good benefits and pay to keep you while working you many extra hours and making sure you know that your just an easily replaceable piece to the puzzle. Management's only motivational concept besides pay is negative reinforcement.

Productive, fun and family orientated.
Shipping and Receiving Clerk (Former Employee), Heyburn, Idaho – December 11, 2012
Pros: management
Cons: disgruntle customers
Opportunity to work and meet with customers on a daily basis. I learned how to handle customers with confidence and professionalism. Management and co-workers were easy to get along with and became like a part of your family. The job could get stressful but, was never put on just one persons shoulders.
