Great Pay , no work life balance

Pros

This company may work for those early in their careers, but it’s not sustainable long-term. There is an implicit expectation to work extended hours to keep up with demands, and a lot of your weekends often involve preparing for the week ahead due to constantly changing priorities. This pace leads to rapid burnout hence the reason it's not a viable option long-term. While peak workloads are common in most businesses, this company operates at that intensity year-round. While not always the case, leadership occasionally makes uncertain or delayed decisions often driven by fear or their limited experience which does contribute to the instability. Many who remain do so mainly for the competitive pay and benefits or their title rather than a sustainable work environment.

Cons

No work life balance Lacks real support for critical areas Unstable environment for long term career

Lactalis is committed to always evolving in ways to best reward our employees with new benefits opportunities. This has been a top priority for our team, and we have recently rolled out an increase in vacation days, including the new volunteer day! We will continue efforts in this area to make our total rewards program strong for our employees.
