A good place to work with an inspiring mission but weak scientific vision - Anonymous employee Indigo Employee Review

Thank you for writing your review of Indigo. I think that the chances for growth as well as constant learning within a mission-driven organization are some of the things that make Indigo a truly special place to work. Thank you also for raising your concerns. I’m sorry to hear that you feel that Indigo is hierarchical; if you’re comfortable doing so, I’d encourage you to talk with your manager, department head, or someone on the People Team so we can work together to address your concerns. We sincerely want our people to be empowered to contribute and innovate without miscommunication or feeling encumbered. We’re proud of our internal Innovation Exchange, and part of our 2017 plan is to continue looking for new ways to encourage and reward innovation. As far as scientific expertise, I’m surprised to hear your comment and wonder where it is coming from. We’ve been lucky in attracting incredible talent from bigger agricultural and life sciences companies due to their passion and belief in our mission – which inspires many of us every day. However, if you have ideas for expertise areas/companies that we are not currently represented in, we’d love to hear your suggestions directly. I truly hope that the pros for you far outweigh the cons, and again encourage you to come forward so your ideas and concerns can be heard directly. Thank you for caring about our success.
