Terrible Company, Toxic Management

Pros

Absolutely no pros to think of

Cons

Overall working for Growers was a very negative experience. The culture of the company is extremely toxic. The leadership is very micromanaging and horrifically inexperienced. Many members of the leadership team have never had another job outside of Growers. You are expected to work nights and weekends with zero overtime pay and no rewards. The leadership feels like a cult. There is absolutely no growth here, the company is not succeeding and neither will you if you work here. A sinking ship.

Hi there. I can tell from your review that you had a negative experience with Growers. We're a small company and every single employee is valuable to us. I'm sorry that you didn't feel valued here. I'm going to be candid and say that I don't think your experience is reflective of what our current employees say it's like to work at Growers. That said, we're constantly looking for ways to improve the experience for our employees and regularly act on their feedback. Person to person, I sincerely hope that you're doing well and are feeling valued in your current role.

Pros

Very value-driven company that is very customer-focused and has some of the most talented people I've come across in the industry. Lot's of growth happening. Very competitive compensation/benefits, and remote-friendly - clearly invested in acquiring top talent.

Cons

Tough, often seasonal industry, and the company has had to reinvent itself in the past - the product is still early, even though the company has been around for 10+ years.

Poor Leadership & Toxic Workplace

Pros

I met a few kind People at this company.

Cons

The worst employment experience in my entire career. “Bro” culture and very personality driven. Cultural diversity is almost non-existent inside and out. CEO is very inexperienced and lacks authority and control. Emotionally draining and leadership will “ghost” you and not provide the tools and information you need to succeed if they want you to leave the company.
