      Pros

      Great mission — supporting farmers, environmentally friendly science, etc

      Cons

      The tone from the top of the organization does not create an environment that encourages employees to share their opinions. There is little debate. The company is fearful of the CEO, and as a result, nobody challenges him. And if you try, you will be crushed. In my opinion, this is a recipe for disaster. It was all okay when the company was making progress, but it is now all falling apart. And what a terrible time to be burning tons of cash and needing to complete another financing.

      Hi there, and thanks for taking time to write a review. I'm sorry to hear that your experience at Indigo was not positive and that you felt it was hard to share your opinions with leadership. Our CEO holds weekly All Hands meetings with employees and answers questions candidly to ensure we are hearing from and responding to challenges for our people. If you have additional suggestions on how we can enhance the conversation with our people, we welcome them.

      Pros

      Benefits, salary, nice office, money.

      Cons

      Management, feedback, mission or lack of actual attention to posted mission, training, egos, unrealistic/unachievable goals. Work life balance!! Just because the CEO does not understand or believe in work life balance does not mean everyone needs to suffer.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We are listening and we hear you, and we always want to hear what we can do better. We work hard because our vision is big and there is a lot to accomplish. We do set ambitious goals, and the work required to achieve these goals means this may not be the right work environment for everyone. I respectfully disagree with your comments about lack of attention to our mission and that our CEO does not understand work life balance, but I respect that this is your experience. Thank you for taking the time to write in feedback - it is not always easy to read, but we appreciate it.

      Pros

      Ambitious mission that captures investors and recruits very effectively. I truly do hope they achieve an ounce of their goals as it would indeed better the world.

      Cons

      Very frail foundations for each business unit. Each offering sounds spot on at pitch level and you can't help but want each of them to win. Dig deeper and they crumble or are marketed with flawed data points. Extreme disconnect from corporate office to the field. Execution misteps were abundant. Watching consultants and Ivy league MBAs talk and drive strategy with such confidence/arrogance on agriculture to growers and agronomists was bizarre and painful to watch. I do hope it all improves as it has to.
