Pros

I cannot imagine that this company could be any worse, or could it?

Cons

This company is 100% driven by the sales departments and it shows. The sales department's strategy is "kill or be killed". Sales employees are cutthroat and constantly backstabbing one another to hit their marks. This mentality bleeds into all other aspects of the company, including accounting, finance, treasury, human resources, etc. This breeds a corporate culture of dishonesty and fierce competitiveness. I survived two corporate layoff meetings during my tenure, and I would have much instead left in a blaze of glory than try to do right by this company. I worked there in 2006, and you would think the environment has changed. Sadly, this is not the case. A current controller told me that in September 2024, the company was virtually the same as in 2006. Zero stability, FBI raids, frequent corporate turnover, untrustworthy coworkers, and no meaningful promotions, but you do get great deals on meat.

Pros

Unfortunately nothing good to say

Cons

-Poor hiring practices/firing practices -Poor benefits -Corrupt upper management -No upward mobility Jbs is a career placeholder at best. Most people I have talked to are waiting for another job before they jump ship. If you aren’t in the “club” then you are seen as an outsider. Fit in or get out is their mentality. I had managers tell me they had to fire people for no justifiable reason. Based on everyone who I have talked to who has left JBS there is nothing good to say once they move on to another company. All the talent is going elsewhere and my advice is to stay away.

Pros

Bonuses are good if you get them

Cons

No work/personal life balance. If you are female, don't plan on moving up in the company. Management will promise you many things and won't follow through. If you need time off to do simple life things like go to the Doctor, dentist etc don't plan on getting it easily. Want to go on a vacation, don't plan on it till they tell you what days you can have off. They don't value their employees, you are just a seat filler and if you leave they will just fill it with another poor soul.
