Pros

I joined the company less than 2 years ago with no background in agriculture, but I got a lot of support from my supervisor and various colleagues to get me up to speed. You can feel that this is a company with a long tradition, but there are a lot of changes going on right now (most of them positive). In a nutshell: - Many great and experienced colleagues - Opportunities to play an important role in big, international projects - Good salary and benefits

Cons

Sometimes slow decision-making, quite a bit of internal bureaucracy
