Pros

Great pay and benefits. It's especially nice if you're not in management as little accountability is ever held.

Cons

Company has gone woke and actively discriminates against "Non-Diverse" employees, aka "White Males". A large number of Safety rules are confusing, contradictory and impossible to follow. Company policy is hard to follow, find and understand. HR doesn't support supervisors below the level of manager, often treating them like criminals until they can prove their innocence. Training has become just an exercise in CYA, no longer caring if employees understand the material. Little to no accountability for non-management employees. Environmental policies are loosely followed with employees encouraged to misreport or turn a blind eye.

Cheap and clueless

Pros

There used to be lots of overtime. Manager is pretty decent.

Cons

Cheap company that does not like to pay almost all employees a competitive wage. Raises are often minimal and often insulting. The safety culture there is a joke where they throw money at issues that dont exist rather than focus on actual issues. Which locations get bonuses is inconsistent, some do, some dont. Benefits used to be really good, than they cheaped out and you have to pay for the benefits you used to get. Upper management makes really stupid decisions all the time and just kind of roll with it. Advancement is nonexistent, I was openly turned down for an internal position that I was qualified for specificly because of my gender. Workload is often multiple times more than what is advertised with no extra pay. The new sap system is an absolute trainwreck. Managment is a joke.

Pros

No Pros unless you just have to have a paycheck.

Cons

Benefits getting cut. Departments getting "centralized" to Canada. Morale is horrible due to lack of caring from upper management. They talk about how wonderful they are to us, but just ask the lowly employee. They took our retirement away from us.

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. There are currently no large-scale initiatives underway to centralize departments into Canada. With regards to benefits, our US and Canada programs were recently updated to add additional coverage in many areas for 2020. Regarding the retirement programs, we had to make the difficult decision to freeze legacy DB (defined benefit) pensions, allowing Nutrien to provide consistent programs going forward. In addition, DB pension plans are expensive and are a risk for a private company to offer. In making the switch to a DC (defined contribution) pension format, we ensure the sustainability of the programs in the future. We know it’s important to be market competitive in order to attract and retain the best talent and are confident our current programs deliver on that.
