Pros

Pay was decent. Benefit package was decent

Cons

This was the worst job of my professional career. If you are a woman be prepared to get passed over for a promotion unless you can put up with sexual harassment. Also be prepared to be blamed if someone messes up. In the department I worked at in Baraboo, 3 individuals left after being harassed by a VP. I am also aware that there has been scrutiny into discrimination complaints against Foremost. If you work here be prepared to be micromanaged. Also, the office is like a morgue. No laughter allowed!

Pros

Great people, legacy co-op that offers opportunity to learning.

Cons

Top heavy mid management that lack the ability to demonstrate performance. A lot of yes man/women that need to be heard accountable or demoted.
