      Rewarding if you can make your way into their “In-Crowd.”

      Pros

      If you can make it into the “In-Crowd” either by becoming drinking buddies with upper management, or by graduating from Cal Poly SLO, then you’re pretty much set for your career at Mission. Become buddies with one/both of the President/CEO’s sons, and you’ll be made a Director in no time.

      Cons

      Human Resources is hands-down 100% untrustworthy. They are deceitful liars. When you fail to make it into Mission’s “In-Crowd,” and you inevitably end-up meeting with Human Resources, you will be told things like “What you tell me/us is confidential.” Do NOT believe this. You will immediately be retaliated-against by whomever you discussed with HR. You can expect daily/weekly drama and petty office politics. No accountability for those in the “In-Crowd,” and all blame is directed at those who will put in the long hours and dedication to keep this company afloat.

      Major pay gaps between corporate/factory jobs. Toxic workplace

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      If management likes you and you're in the corporate sector of the company, it is very easy to move up in positions and get paid a high salary. I've never been at a company where they hand out new positions and higher salaries in such a short-time scale, for no justifiable reason. Sales employees barely out of college make an extremely high salary. In addition, they always seem to have money to put on events, go out to lunch, get catering, etc. The perks are nice on the surface, especially if you are a CalPoly grad. They are very successful and are expanding to new markets.

      Cons

      It's a toxic workplace with nepotist policies. The CEO and his sons walk around like they're gods gift to avocados. You have to tip-toe around them to not hurt their inflated egos. Though growth is fast, they will also cut you very fast if you don't fit into the bravado, good ole-boys style, or if they simply don't like you. They disregard normal workplace policies to suit their needs, and while the sales people are making unjustifiable high salaries, they can't even fork over a dollar over minimum wage to their seasonal produce workers. They make them work long hours, supervisors berate employees, and they don't get any benefits. It's honestly disgusting.
