Pros

Pay and Benefits are good if you get to keep them.

Cons

CEO and the COO who was recently appointed by the absentee board are not aligned and consistently deliver conflicting messaging to employees. CEO laughed while addressing how badly the multiple rounds of layoffs have gone but never apologized or took responsibility for the decisions that lead to it. In fact, nobody in a management position had to take responsibility. They have no clue how to measure carbon and are pedaling empty promises to both investors and farmers. Commercial side is a train wreck. I guess that's what happens when you don't have a single person with any industry experience. It's so bad a VP actually decided to put on a pair of Dickies overalls and rubber boats while pretending to be a 'farmer'. Here, "hold my beer" while I alienate the culture of both your employees and your customers. We aren't stupid, you're just ignorant.

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.
