Pros

Been with Indigo for over a year and feel honored to be an employee of this company as we continue to experience exponential growth. CEO David Perry is very transparent and is open to questions about the company.

Cons

None to really speak of. We're a start up company so running into hurdles and overcoming them is to be expected; part of the routine.

Pros

My peers are great and they reimburse me for my commute.

Cons

Nothing works. Company is unable to pay vendors and growers on time on a regular basis. Switches from exotic play to exotic play and can’t even block and tackle correctly. Horrible culture. Can’t speak up or express different view without fear of retribution from management. People are “appointed” to roles within without even interviewing, regardless of background or skill level. The products don’t work, we don’t make anything better or more efficient for farmers, growers, buyers, anyone. The company is run by a bunch of arrogant ivy league grads that don’t understand why the ag industry doesn’t want to immediately adopt their crummy products. They basically assume all farmers and buyers are ignorant and haven’t streamlined their processes after hundreds of years of refining. The company pillars are a joke, we don't always do the right thing and this company is HILARIOUSLY NOT transpararent. They need to bring in some consultants asap to turn this ship around. The morale is comicly low. They claim to care about the environment but trot around employees on planes left and right for meaningless trips just to be in the office somewhere. We need a seperate terraton program just to offset the ridiculous amount of unnecessary executive travel we have. All of the reviews you see that are good are either from HR or employees that have only been with the company for a short time (serously, check their tenure). I'm sure there will be some snippy generic HR response to this but the many bad reviews and plummeting glass door score (look from Nov 18 to Dec 19) show that I'm not some one off. Once the free lunches and standing desk newness wears off you realize how bad it is. If you’re considering it, ignore the free coffee machines and keep your job security where you are.

Pros

Coworkers are generally nice, good insurance and pay

Cons

No job security, constantly shifting gears and wasting millions of dollars. All of a sudden we are out of money...weird things going on right now. Also the marketplace idea, which has failed before, is failing again...can’t believe I fell for the lies.

Thank you for providing feedback, I’m glad to hear the positive comments about your colleagues and our benefits. Innovation is core to our mission, which requires us to be nimble in the way we operate. As you know, Indigo is committed to 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 or adjust business units where we see an opportunity. With thousands of growers and nearly half of all buyer facilities in the U.S. enrolled, the marketplace businesses are demonstrating strong performance indicators. Thanks again for taking the time to provide your feedback.
