Kellogg Company Employer Reviews

While working for Kellogg's, I was able to learn new job skills in an industrial work enviroment. Jobs ranged from working on the packing floor to the processing floor. For example, I worked a cereal box packing line, ran a fork-lift, and filled larged totes of cooked cereal to be shipped to other off-site locations. The five summer seasons that I worked – more...  there consisted of 16 weeks working 7 days a week. The shifts each week could range from 7 to 3 to 3 to 11 or 11 to 7. Kellogg's could make an employee work an extra 4 hours before or after. – less

In the 7yrs I spent I went from a reset rep to vac relief to a merchandiser to a salesman n taken on a route of my own.

I was working in the country of Iraq during the war for almost eight (8) years.It is impossible to put into words the life changing experences I have enjoyed. As hard as it is to put into words any of the questions to the right. I would be more then happy to discuss any, thank you.

Pam

worked at the company for almost 2 years would of worked there longer but they lost the contract,recommend to a single person

The day at work was a constant barrage of requests and questions for until I had been there 8 hours. Then it calmed down and I could work on ongoing projects.

I learned to multi-task, set priorities, make sure personal follow-up on requests was prioritized, find the needed resources, who to get involved to get things done, and lead the charge on my – more...  projects.

Management was normally supportive.

I loved the co-workers. Everyone did what they could to help. – less

learn to be a team player and always wash ur hands going in the plant.

Kellogg's is a stable company to work for. After learning the unique processes; learning the culture was the hardest part of the job. Management direction swings from week to week; but is definitely driven from a corporate level. Keep up with the changes is the most challenging aspect of the job.

A typical day of work will consist of multiple store vists (2-7) merchandising Kellogg products. With this job I learned about product volume, sales prediction, location volume, managing inventory and display planning. Management and co-workers are personality dependant so give or take, you may have a laid back team or you could have an untight team. – more...  The hardest part of the job would be the long hours. You can easily work 55+ hours a week depending on sales events, vacation coverage and forced out products. The most enjoyable part of the job is self management aspect, you have no direct supervisor. – less

This is a very tough, demanding job. I have never been treated so badly while working so hard. Very unethical way of achieving sales goals by shipping way too much products to customers. Pressure and stress is unbearable. Will not be able to get vacation weeks you desire. Will be entitled to personal days but will never be able to take them. Phone will – more...  ring constantly. – less

Everything about this job was routine, I never really saw my manager only a few times a month,I didn't work with anyone,the hardest part of this job was not really having responsibility,I read most of the time.

Kelloggs is a big company but working in their call centers is just not all that great. You are expected to work long and hard and for little pay and benefits with no promise of advancement.

I've learned to be a sales person, but not because I had the necessary training from my manager. I enjoy my co-workers, although I almost never work with any of them. The hardest part of my job is trying to please the company I work for while still taking care of the customers I service. I enjoy being out on my own during the day to just get my job – more...  done and go home. – less

Kellogg is a very lean IT depsrtment that has allowed me to learn quite a bit. I have learned about VM Ware, Blackberry and Exchange in a clustered environment. Management is very fluid and flakey at times and does not always have clear goals. My co workers are great to work with and very knowledgable. The hardest part of the job is the paranonia about – more...  security and working with the constant suspions from management. The mpost enjoyable part of the job is working with users and solving their problems – less

Management is absolutely ignorant around there and unless they like you your not going anywhere and youll have to pick up everybody elses slack because their all out in the parking lot getting drunk. So unless you like total caos and feel like tearing out your hair everytime you work dont waste your time and you'll be a lot better for it.

Work in Baghdad as a Logistics Coordinator, typical day involved dealing with the US Military and providing the proper paperwork to be filled out for movement through out the country of Iraq to mutiple bases. Learned how to work in a very stressful environment, very important demends and issues that arise at any moment. Co-workers were great. Hardest – more...  part of the job was the daily issues of working in a war zone. Most enjoyable part of the job was being able to provide support for our troops. – less

I love working and running my machine. It makes time go by and I learn new things about each day.

company is reducing service to stores and merchandising hours

giving the present situation of being in Iraq, I think the site I was at was great. We had no incoming, and the living arrangements was good.

You do not get stressed out easily, they provide you with the help you need.
