AI summary of recent reviews
Employees appreciate the friendly and helpful colleagues at Simplot, along with very good pay and remuneration, particularly for trades and production workers. The work environment is generally positive and safe, with good work/life balance and flexibility. Local site management is praised for being accessible and in tune with employees' needs.
However, there are some potential challenges, such as management at head office being somewhat disconnected and slow to respond. Communication regarding workload and schedules could be improved, particularly for casual staff. Some employees have noted workplace politics and limited career development opportunities, with infrequent performance reviews. Additionally, facilities at some sites may require upgrades.

Jul 2026Bathurst NSW 2795Less than 1 year in the role, current employee
It's a good work for pay your living working a bit, but you won't make a lot of money as a casual.
The good thingsPeople are nice, the work is simple, they furnish PPE and work clothes
The challengesThey lied about the work load, told us they will be work for 6 months with a lot of overtime, but it wasn't the case for all the casuals they recruited. They don't communicate about the work load and won't make it easy for you to get a second job. They expect you to be available 7 days a week while giving you 3 shifts a week in average.

If I could go back in time, I would have declined the role and taken the other role I was considering.
The good things-Nice building
-Good products
-Some nice people
The challengesI'd avoid it if you value fairness, honesty, your privacy, and really hate having to navigate unnecessary social politics.
