Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Premier Foods to a friend?

Why?
The site I work on has been there for over 80 years and I imagine it will be there for another 80. The site is big and it is now starting to invest a lot more capital there so only good things to come

Go for it. The place is full of great friendly people and all are willing to help.
