Pros of working at Tyson Foods

The company is reputable and committed to community service. The job is challenging but fulfilling. It is family-owned and, for the most part, operated. I will also state that it isn't owned or controlled by China, as some oddball mentioned in their comments.

Cons of working at Tyson Foods

There are too many executives at every level, which is causing confusion and mismanagement. No one seems to have a clearly defined role, resulting in multiple people working on the same tasks. Additionally, there is a lack of consistency across all plants due to their autonomy, and corporations need to establish and enforce standards to ensure consistency.

Tyson Foods benefits

- Bonus - Generous 401k and stock purchase matches. - Free College - Good amount of time off

What do you like best about Tyson Foods's CEO and the leadership team?

The CEO is knowledgeable and approachable, but the leadership team appears disoriented at times.

How would you improve Tyson Foods's culture?

I don't know at this point.

How did you prepare for the Tyson Foods interview?

I read up on the company, followed some news articles concerning the tools I would be using and took a look at the reviews on sites like this.

How does your compensation at Tyson Foods compare to the industry average?

It is a bit low on both a regional and national level.

What's the diversity at Tyson Foods like?

"They are very well represented and have heavily invested in promoting diversity."

What brings you the most joy at Tyson Foods?

I LOVE when I see people trying our products.
