It was a great job with good people
Diesel Mechanic (Former Employee), Hutchinson, KS –
Pros: great people.
Cons: non-flexible hours
Everything is well organized and structured. The hardest part about this job is obtaining the desired work schedule. i worked nights so naturally i had no social or family life. The people there are great, understanding, and are urgent to teach and give instruction

Great place to get your foot in the door
Production Supervisor (Current Employee), Waterloo, IA –
At Tysons you learn the core values of manufacturing. You get young and fresh individuals training to perform heavy manual labor jobs. Its very challenging, but it builds your leadership skills from to ground up. USDA and quality assurance are at every corner, so that trains to learn how to deal with authorities in the workplace and address issues that – more...  are presented at hand. Safety is at the forefront of everything. This provides you with a sense of awareness and caring for your employees. Great place to make the next step forward. – less

Treat you like family...not even close
Warehouse Tracking Specialist (Former Employee), Green Forest Ar. –
Pros: decent insurance
Cons: treat people terrible.
I devoted over 20 years to Tysons and should have never started there. Saw people treated poorly on a daily basis. I had many jobs there including Supervisor. I was forced to quit by management for reporting workplace abuse. Do not work for this company. They treat people poorly. I wasted 20 years devoted to
a company that didnt care in th.e least

Fast-paced, mulititasking environment
Quality Assurance (Current Employee), Perry, IA –
Pros: fast-paced and multitasking/great medical coverage
Cons: the pay
A typical day includes starting up and shutting down my equipment, as well as maintaining that equipment. The most enjoyable part of my job is running the ultrasound as it is a challenge to get it perfect everytime I scan. The people are also enjoyable.

Great Job, I miss it.
Refrigeration Technician (Former Employee), Buffalo, NY –
Pros: discounts on great food, especially in houston.
Cons: no advancement, low pay, (without ot, aceptable with ot, both plants)
I thought I was reviewing Tyson Portwall, (Houston TX) I wish I could go back there, but Tyson in Buffalo was one of the best jobs I had. If I could move my wife there I would want to go back. Tyson is not the best paying company, just a great place to work.

Great company wish I could have stayed there
Forklift Operator/Breeder Lab (Former Employee), Nashville, AR –
Was a wonderful place to work, a typical day was one that was filled with something to do. The people that worked there were outgoing and always looking out for each other. Management was very easy to get along with and always let you know in advance what was going on not only for that day but for the week. .
