Pros

Above industry average on pay and benefits

Cons

Employees who have been with the company 15+ years are resistant to change. When you make a suggestion, they do not listen. The work/life balance is an absolute joke in which you are expected to work 50 hours a week due to the company running so lean. If you plan on working a 40 hour week, get ready for the backlash. If you plan on having a life outside of CHS, do not come here. In my opinion, the company has a bleak future with no vision on how a company should operate in 2018. My recommendation to anyone reading this is to look at another company since I will be.

Pros

Please read the cons - especially if you are a woman, minority, LGBTQIA+, disabled, or practice any faith other than Christianity.

Cons

I have nothing nothing positive to say. If you would like to set your career back and work in a toxic, political, unprofessional culture run by white men, work here. It is not POC, LGBTQA+ - friendly environment. If you are a young woman working at this company, expect to be sexually harassed. I and many other former female colleagues share similar stories. If you go to HR they will brush it under the rug and protect the perpetrators with a file. Not only that, but many colleagues were openly evangelical and would pray and bring up god in meetings. I personally have no issues with people practicing their faith, but please do not bring it to work and make it front and center at a publicly traded company. I may write a book on my experience here someday because the stories I have are wild. Many of the company's DEI efforts are performative. They have an LGBTQIA+ employee resource group but refuse to hang the pride flag outside HQ during pride month. Make it make sense.

Pros

Compensation and benefits are pretty good Work/life balance overall good Exposure to leaders within your department They do give you some stretch projects, if you demonstrate willingness Sense of community, pride in company heritage Genuine focus on community stewardship (i.e. longstanding United Way partnership, commitment to hiring veterans, volunteering, etc.) Coworkers are overall very nice, caring people...they will ask about your weekends and go to lunch with you regularly Annual meeting is a neat event to attend, they do a good job of putting it on for employees and members

Cons

Old school culture, lack of diversity among leadership, resistance to change Some of the leaders (not the C-suite but a layer or two below) can be condescending, difficult to work with, but their behavior seems to be tolerated SAP implementation did not go well, it has been a headache to all involved Work can become repetitive, no clear career path in many cases Location - Inver Grove Heights isn't too exciting, but is convenient for many employees
