Pilgrim's Employee

"I had been with Pilgrim's for 16 years. They had provided me many opportunities for advancement over the years and I had mostly worked with a knowledgeable and caring team. The company has been driving more people first initiatives but it has still not been driven deep enough into the organization. The turnover rates for this company are very high upwards of 100% and greater for some business units."
