Our Career Progression

I’ve been with the company for about 10 years now and have worked at both Zea, Semolina and currently work for Taste Bud Management. The company culture is great, the people are like family & the food is delish! ~ Priscilla M. (Taste Buds Mgmt)
Zea Kenner has become like my second home, and my coworkers have become like my second family! ~ Pauline H. (Zea)
My experience with Taste Buds has truly shaped my life in many ways. I have grown up both professionally and personally with this company. Our culture is something that goes behind a set of words. It is a call to action and a code of conduct. We enjoy each other, challenge each other and grow both individually and collectively. This company is home for me. ~ Jeffrey T. (Zea)
For me, working for Taste Buds means being around family. At work, I am surrounded by people who care about me and my future. I am so grateful to be able to work for such an amazing company. ~ Ashley R. (Zea)
The first thing that pops into my head is: Working at Zea is a TON of fun, but the best part is meeting new people everyday and hearing their stories. ~ Chris G. (Zea)
The emotional connections we create within the company has given me memories that will last a lifetime. ~ Drew B. (Zea)
