Pros

The pay was above average. Benefits were strong. Had some excellent co-workers. Lots of interesting ideas.

Cons

The management of the sales team was shocking. Honestly, like nothing I’ve seen before in my career. Indigo Ag has instituted a culture of fear and dishonesty in the Memphis office and the commercial sales team. The worst part of the whole deal was that the Account Managers were seemingly the only employees truly being held accountable. If goals were not being hit it was always the account managers fault for underperforming. Never the managers, never the sales leaders, never the people building the offers we had to present. The company has ambitious (ridiculous) goals they are shooting for and the sales team was always set up to fail. The Boston office is on an island and I’m sure those employees have a much different experience than the Memphis office employees or the remote sales people. I would think that the majority of the 5 star reviews on this site for Indigo come from the Boston office. It’s one thing to be ambitious and have big goals and to be aggressive. It’s another thing entirely to be desperate and dishonest. The way the sales people were treated at this company was appalling. I hope everyone lands on their feet after Indigo and moves on to better things. Indigo Ag should be ashamed of themselves for treating people the way they do.

Pros

I come to work happy every day. There is always something new to sink your teeth into, and I've had excellent exposure to new systems and technology. I've had 3 managers at Indigo and all of them have been, in their own right, some of the best people I've ever worked for. Not to say they were perfect, but they always listened to and valued my opinion, even when we disagreed. The company moves fast and there are always opportunities to learn, grow, and develop new skills.

Cons

I'm sure this can vary based on teams/positions, but my experience has been extremely positive.

Pros

Excellent salary and medical benefits

Cons

Management has no concrete plans, constantly changing employee objectives and responsibilities, plans change with the wind or every new, unproven technology. No work / life balance, contrary to what the company HR boasts about on their website. Every time I was on vacation, my manager called or texted me for ridiculous, "brief" information or updates that was never important or someone else could have answered. They try to brainwash you to live a healthy life better with the company provided lunches, which for most everyone who was a normal person, the food was terrible and not worth paying for anyway! These free lunches and their constant emphasis on always working, never taking a real lunch break away from the office, is really just a form of brainwashing. So is the lucrative bonus program, just a big carrot so you are always forced to work huge amounts of overtime, being available to everyone, all the time. Most of the young, high level positions, these are with kids just out of college, who only know how the work their cell phones, apps, and play with untested technology. You have to use your own cell phone for all company business, the open office and desk concept is hated by everyone, it is just that most staff are afraid to tell management this.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. As you know, Indigo is committed driving positive change in the agriculture industry, but we are only at the beginning of that endeavor. That means we will inevitably pursue new approaches when something isn't working. This pursuit also means that we move at a fast pace; employing the work, discipline and atmosphere required to achieve our mission. Thank you again for your feedback.
