I came to Crest as a college student looking for an internship. Through my paid internship, I gained so much industry experience and it helped me get my foot in the door. After graduation they hired me as a full time Maintenance Mechanic!

A lot of places say that they care about their employees, but at Crest, they truly show it. I love being at a company that still offers "old school" benefits like handing out turkeys at Thanksgiving and hosting an annual company picnic but also goes beyond that with employee loans which are co-signed by Crest Foods and the Benevolence Fund, which helps employees through unexpected emergencies. Even in the day to day, you'll see upper management greet a line worker by name and ask how his kids are. To me, that shows that I am with a company that cares about it's employees as people, not just workers.

I've been at Crest Foods for close to 17 years and have enjoyed working for such a family oriented company. Quality Assurance is a small close-knit department, and it feels like I come in every day to work with my extended family. I love that! I also enjoy that I am constantly learning new things as we grow and evolve in our respective areas.

Crest reached out to me during my senior year of high school when they heard I was interested in pursuing a degree in Food Science. They worked with me to set up an internship and scholarship program while I was in college, and they gave me the opportunity to work here full-time once I graduated from college. I’m thankful to work for a company that was so willing to help me pursue my education while also helping to prepare me for my future.
