Bimbo Bakeries Employee Reviews for Account Development Manager

"tough love"

What do you like about working at Bimbo Bakeries?

"I liked the freedom and opportunity to perform my responsibilities as I worked to develop the relationships with my account."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Get everything in writing and get a job description for whatever position your applying for."

What don't you like about working at Bimbo Bakeries?

"What I didn't like was the advise I was constantly being given from the account side and the operation side of the company. Many times I was being told to be invisible and to be less efficient. The operations side of the company didn't like the responsibilities I was given to perform by Safeway. I feel that I performed the job responsibilities for that position better than anyone has done in the past, and to this day. That was not just my opinion but it was the opinion of the company President, Jim Brennan and the President of the Texas division of Safeway Steve Frisby. When I was let go by BBU, I feel it was not just, and my accomplishment's were never taken into consideration. I feel I made a difference and built that account relationship to it's highest point."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Perhaps in the future, when the company makes changes, they would take into consideration those that are actually making contributions to the bottom line and those that can make a difference. The good O Boy syndrome never contributes to the bottom line, and never will."
