Pros

- Decent work/life balance depending on team - Mission sounds meaningful in theory - Severance packages are reasonable

Cons

- Significant downsizing in 2025 - Repeated strategic pivots over the past few years - Ongoing restructures and leadership churn contribute to instability, stress, and burnout - Digital transformation efforts are led by leaders lacking product or digital expertise - Executive leadership remains traditional and disconnected from the realities of modern digital practices - Politics and poor leadership behaviors are tolerated, impacting culture and morale - Employees often feel treated as interchangeable resources rather than long-term contributors

Pros

Competitive pay and benefits, decent work/life balance (depends on your role), established and well regarded products.

Cons

They hire excellent people on the ground, but DEI hires in C-suite managmeent are bad. Toxic, narcissistic "leaders" are promoted based on gender instead of aptitude, and cancerous individuals are slow to be removed because of the emphasis on DEI. Yara used to be and could be a great place to work again, but they need to get rid of the problem people to get there.
