Ocean Spray reviews

The environment and poor culture management created was horrific. I've never seen such blatant lies and misdirection from senior management in my life. They keep talking about how amazing of a job they are doing and patting themselves on the back when the foot soldiers are dealing with constant failures that management keeps wanting to ignore. Too many things are failing. They sent the entire IT department to India and it has been a complete mess. Things that used to take 2-3 hours are taking weeks and months and costing the company more money right now but they keep telling everyone how awesome it all is. Some of us can't get crucial parts of our jobs done since IT has been a massive let down the last few months with all the cuts. Finance has been gutted and its only getting worse. With no regard to their employees lives, forced Marketing into Boston drastically impacting their lives. Constant almost weekly lay offs. The worst part is how management has carried themselves. They cheer on and promote hateful sentiment. Someone called out some of the toxic people and management made everyone stop and clap for the person kissing up. Pathetic. Take a second and realize why some people are toxic. Some of us were/are FORCED to come in early, leave late, work threw lunch to keep up with the bare minimum work load EVERY single day so the company can stay functional because our departments were slashed and cut down by 50%-60%. Found a better job and left because of the mess management has created and there was no end in sight.

Corporate mentality has sunk in. Laying off people in a booming economy all because they can't figure out how to steer the ship. They bring in systems that never work correctly and don't have a clue what continuous improvement means. Figure out the problem first before making numerous changes, people have called out these issues but nothing is done about it. Business is business I get it, but there has been a lot of talent here and its like pulling teeth to get anything done that would seem like it should be common sense. I don't know if it is egos or laziness up at the top but companies that preach family should operate bottom up and not top down.
