I came here as a part timer back in 2017 at a time in my life when I was less serious about what I wanted to do but just needed a job to make money and as long as I was able to pay my expenses at the time everything was cool. I had switched over to here after working for Keebler for a few years because they decided to exit DSD. I had another part time job at the time so working 2 part time jobs worked in my favor. During my years with Nabisco whether I was part time and even now as a FTOW I had other jobs that I worked aside from Nabisco that I couldn’t stand and although I never found working for Nabisco to be super exciting I always liked it more than the other jobs but now it’s turned out to be the worst job I’ve ever had at least from the time mission 1 took place. At least when mission 1 first started and I learned how to write I had a feeling it wouldn’t turn out to be so bad if and when we get enough help or if they made the system a little better where were more or less helping the reps out and not writing on a day to day basis that maybe things would get better but things only got worse and are only continuing to get worse. Their expectations are unrealistic. Pack out the order, write the order, go through dead stock, write the credits, etc and they want everything done perfectly. They don’t give us enough time to do a good job that’s why everyone doesn’t do that great of a job and the biggest mistake I made was the fact that I once worked hard for this company and cared but it only lead to me being treated like cr-p and wanting the impossible done. If I were to do things they way they want them done I’ll be out there for 10-12 hours but they hate overtime so the situation is damned if you do damned if you don’t. They threaten your job thinking it’ll motivate you but they’ll never learn. At this point I’m willing to downgrade to a job that pays less just to get the he-l out of here even if it means doing the side gigs I do such as Uber, Lyft, DoorDash and Instacart more. If I have to work more but end up being less overstimulated because I find a job that pays less but doesn’t wear me out so much it’s worth it. It’s not worth coming to a job that only wears me out to the point I don’t do anything outside of work because I’m too burnt from being overworked and overstimulated. I want to enjoy my time off and have fun and not lay around because of being burnt out from a cr-ppy job.

You are spot on!
Mondelez poor management poor plant manager. Lazy people. Human resources rude and selfish to employees. Loved the company before. Also they allow bullying like it the right thing to do. No respect to good employees
I am so miserable here but I feel trapped
Mission 1 is the scenic route to going true DSD, and getting rid of most, if not all, of the employees in the field. The writing is on the wall. You just have to read between the lines and the lies to understand it.
I’m glad I found this site so I can be reassured how miserable everyone else is around the country. I’ve been with the company almost 20 years and I long for the days when you had a manageable day. Remember when your workday was actually reasonable and you could get to know people in your stores without having to run by everyone cause you’re worried about getting to the other 6 stores you have left. And still have to get home and check your brainless merchandisers orders. And make sure dmi is done.
I keep looking for something else but I think I’ll just stay and enjoy my 6 weeks vacation until they pay me to leave. I know as a sales rep I’ll be next to go. I’m just a merchandiser with a car, I sell nothing and just pack out deliveries and do dmi. What’s the point of having us? I’m mentally ready to go, just get it over with an offer me a severance.
Yep I was once the guy slanging cookies hated that job too!! I left that cr-p. I WOULD NEVER GO BACK!!! And for overtime I didn’t care one bit I took my sweet time in those stores I didn’t care if they didn’t like oh well lol
You are on the right track! I was once where you were, well before mission 1. I was a SR. The absolute worst management out there! There is no motivation when no matter how hard you work you won’t get promoted, recognized, or even a bonus anymore. You will be so much happier just to be treated with respect!! Best decision I made in my professional life was to exit Mondelez! Looking back, I wish I had done it way earlier! Good luck!
I agree. Everyone is set up for failure in mission one.
