Leprino Foods
Great experience
Associate Director, SAP Supply Chain (Current Employee) – Denver, CO – June 19, 2018
If you are looking for an opportunity where you can learn and enjoy a collaborative environment, this is a good company to work. Upward mobility is slow as positions are not readily available and upper level management tend to stay long term
rotating schedule, 12 hr days
bulk chemical attendant/sanitation (Current Employee) – Greeley, CO – June 1, 2018
I am always busy. They expect a lot from one person. 12 hr days are long and no one is really engaged after about 10 hrs we are just going through the motions and depending on muscle memory to accomplish most tasks.
Pros
corp profit sharing
Cons
rotating schedule
high pace job
Maintenance Technician Team Lead (Former Employee) – Greeley, CO – May 7, 2018
Job an environment are ok. management are not fair or look out for anyone.The work is har and low man power holds you to higher expectations. they could use a management shake up.
Pros
wage and schedule
Cons
management and communication
I do not recommend
Team 1,2,3 (Former Employee) – Greeley, CO – May 4, 2018
Perfect if you have no life. Rotating shifts every 4 weeks from days to nights at 12+ hours a shift. And less than 12 hours between shifts. They've had the ability to give set shifts for years but refuse to. Sick days are a joke, you may get paid for taking them but good luck getting them approved through there outside agency. Miss 3 days a expect a write up. They pile more and more work upon you everyday. Be prepared to be thrown under a bus at all times. They on care about the money not the people. You will always be hurt on the cheese side, be it by, pulled muscles, burns( heat or chemical) or exhaustion. Regardless of your position if you are not management be prepared to always be scrubbing by hand. Place is full of lip service. They tell you they listen to your work issues and do nothing. The expect the world from you and give nothing back.You never have the same day off every week. When you do have a day off you are too tired to do anything anyways. HR is where your dreams go to die. Corporate policy is atrouis. Non-union and bash Unions through propaganda. Fake smiles abound.
drama centeral
Bulk Line Operator (Current Employee) – Sayre, PA – April 25, 2018
It is like being in high school again people tattling and wining because they don't want to do something. definitely not a place to work if you have a family. 90% of the time you don't get the days you request off. Forget about holidays with your family even just 1. Some of the supervisors are very arrogant.
Pros
none
Cons
everything
Good job, good pay
Quality Execution Technician (Former Employee) – Lemoore, CA – April 13, 2018
Easy job, production environment, state of California needs to get a grip on FLMA abuse. Combination of hard workers and lazy workers, Leprino is an at will employer, so they should be able to get rid of the slackers, but all the slackers abuse the out of FMLA. More people should appreciate a job as good as Leprino Foods.
Decent Place to work.
Packager Team Member 2 (Current Employee) – Greeley, CO – April 10, 2018
Its a decent place to work. Pay is not too bad for this area. The hours and schedule are interesting, it affords family time. Interesting machinery to learn.
Pros
close to home
Cons
secure like fort knox
Management is uninvolved
Quality Assurance Analyst (Current Employee) – Remus, MI – April 3, 2018
The only thing management cares about is how the numbers look at the end of the day. If problems are brought into question you are either swept under the rug, or you are now a target to be the next person fired. Management is always targeting someone, even when doing their job correctly as a power move. They attempt to instill fear into employees and if you do not comply, you will be fired.
ok work place.
Sanitation Operator (Former Employee) – Allendale, MI – March 19, 2018
Managers get away with murder. It was based off of the buddy system. if you drink with the supervisor you get more perks. Basically if your a butt kisser your golden!
Pros
pay
Cons
Racist upper management
Low Morale, No Incentive
Master Data Analyst (Former Employee) – Denver, CO – February 27, 2018
Stuck in the past, no work/life balance, no advancement potential. Management yells and degrades employees. Worst place to work. Learned nothing would not let my worst enemy work there.
Pros
Leaving to work for another company
Cons
Bad management
Poor management
maintenance (Current Employee) – Greeley, CO – February 26, 2018
Not a place you would recommend. Favoritism, nepotism, clear religious boundaries. Poor working conditions. Heavy industrial envoronment, noise, heat, cold, chemical hazards. working at heights, electrical shock hazards, release of material hazards.
You're just a number
Foreman (Former Employee) – Fort Morgan, CO – February 20, 2018
Worked at this company for over 12 years. Was in a leadership role and had a great work history as far as performance and attendance. I was let go without a second thought on their part. If you make one little slip in this place, they don't care who you are, you're fired. No second chance, no opportunity to explain, just "Goodbye." The pay is great and the benefits are some of the best out there. As far as work-life balance, they assume you have no life outside of those walls. If you want to have a job where you are truly appreciated, go somewhere else. Leprino Foods only cares about Leprino Foods.
Pros
Great pay, Great Benefits
Cons
They own you, you are just a number in their system
Mediocre
Hourly Employee (Current Employee) – Tracy, CA – February 15, 2018
Leprino is not the worst company I have worked for but it leaves much to be desired. They really don't care about you, your health, safety, or the wellbeing of your family. They get walked all over by the union and they reward incompetence. If you are good at your job and get along with others you will not get promoted generally speaking. I would consider it a person insult if they wanted to make me a supervisor. Which is sad because at some point I would like to move into management. Just not here!
Pros
You will never get fired unless you break the law.
Cons
You will never get fired unless you break the law.
Excellent Pay
Warehouse Team Lead, Inventory Specialist (Current Employee) – Greeley, CO – February 7, 2018
Leprino foods pays very well, but the lack of advancement opportunities was too high and the work life balance was horrible. IT is a very fast paced job that can get stressful at times.
Pros
Benefits and pay
Cons
Schedule and managment
the place to be if you had no life
Bagger/Production Worker (Former Employee) – Roswell, NM – January 29, 2018
I love working at Leprino, great pay the best I've ever had it was a lot of fun the people I work with were awesome and management was cool the only thing I didn't care for was how many hours and day I was there sometime I thought I lived there
Pros
bonus, t-shirt and food
Cons
long hours long weeks
good work environment
Production Operator/Lead (Former Employee) – Allendale, MI – January 24, 2018
good work environment with good people. The downfall was switching shifts all the time and missing out on family. Working holidays and almost every weekend made me miss a lot.
Pros
good pay and benefits
Cons
hours
Packaging
Team Member Cheese Pack (Current Employee) – Greeley, CO – January 22, 2018
Easy to move within same departments- definitely hard to get out of departments. When applying, pick where you want to advance. Rotating shifts in most departments.
Pros
Days off, pay
Cons
Rotating shifts, advancement
