Pros

Great people, very engaged work force. Awesome food! Nice office. Indigo has the potential to do really interesting things for the planet.

Cons

There are no phones in the offices and the company doesn't pay for your phone. Huh? Is this for real? I still can't believe it. The other really awful thing about Indigo is that there's no match on the 401(k) contribution. Apparently the CEO's philosophy is that the company shouldn't match the 401(k) contribution until it's making money. That's all well and good if you're the CEO, who I'm sure is all set for retirement but what about those of us who actually do need to save for retirement?

Pros

Work 3 days a week, good team work, fast paced so the 12 hour shift flies by and you get to work to the top of your scope

Cons

Sickness grace isn’t the best

Pros

Decent base salaries. Due to the company's structure and goal shifting, you get experience in a lot of different aspects of the company. Past non-negotiable goal milestones, there is some flexibility, you have the opportunity and freedom to make the job your own. Good work-life balance, and commendable company goals around sustainable ag etc. made working here stand out.

Cons

Raises and bonuses not given for several years due to company not reaching unattainable goals. Lots of turnaround from constant layoffs. During my time there, I had a new manager about every year. No clear goals, and when they are clear they constantly shift. It is hard to grow salary wise within the company, especially when money is tight. You will be able to get more responsibilities and learn new skills, but don't expect your pay to reflect this. Lots of financial mismanagement within the company causing current R&D funding and operations to be barely present.
