Working at Franz Bakery

I used to be there from 2005 to 2014, I worked 80 hour weeks for 10 years I was able to bring home a $2500 check every week. I left in 2014 and came back in 2022 and because of the Democratic state and the Democratic laws cannot work excessive overtime no more than 12 hours a day. Can’t work excessive overtime to be able to support your family. Franz Bakery does not want to pay their employees a cost-of-living wage. The new CEO has shown that she does not care about her employees. $1100 check a week does not pay the bills.

If you work at Franz Bakery make no plans to see your family. The low pay is a very big struggle and right now we are out of contract fighting for more money and they don’t wanna pay out. Even though they have a very high revenue after everything is paid they could give everybody a $10 raise but they were refusing to. They screwed everybody over during Covid and And They have been behind on wages for decades keep promising higher wages and they never do it on the next contract

benefits are Blue Cross Blue Shield paid at 90% and also Kaiser. They have fired a lot of people in the last year and also a lot of people have quit because of the wages and everybody has been struggling.

we never see the CEO we never see Kim she never walked through the bakery. The management team we had before we always saw the management team and they would even come in at two or 3 o’clock in the morning and talk with their graveyard people. Nowadays you don’t see that.

they should improve their culture by listening to their employees and taking care of their employees. If other CEOs and other companies can help their employees out and give them a raise or give up their bonuses to help their employees that’s what the CEO and the management team needs to do with friends they need to do some sacrificing to show they actually care about their employees.

It’s over the phone interview to set up a time to commit interview in person. That’s the other thing they only do orientation every two weeks instead of doing it every week to find good people.

let’s just say I made more as a general manager down in Dallas than what I bring home a week being an employee a machine operator $1100 a week is not paying my bills I have to work two jobs. We do not make over $100,000 a year. And nowadays we should be taking home $2500 a week to be able to pay our bills put money away for emergencies and the inflation wages.

their diverse program it’s all political. I have been told I would never be a supervisor or a foreman because I’m too old. And they’ve told somebody who’s been successful as a general manager that they cannot be anything there at this company. By a supervisor and a plant manager

Franz Bakery is a very hostile work environment nobody is happy with their job.

Benifits are very good bit the salary is $10 below a cost of living wage

Franz refuse to give good raises $.25 a year at contract we are actually low paid we don’t make a cost of living wage anymore, Thank u biden we appreciate it.
