Pros

The company has great ethics, and the vast majority of employees are very willing to help each other. You will work with good-hearted people that are a joy to work around. The 401k match is one of the best, if not the best you will find. If you are willing to relocate for the first 5-10 years of your career and you are a skilled employee then you can receive multiple promotions.

Cons

Salary is not competitive with many others in the industry. The company claims the lower salary is made up for in the benefits package and potential bonus but it is not. Other companies offer similar, if not better bonuses. The awesome 401k does not make up the salary difference you can find at other companies. It is common to go 3 years without even a cost-of-living increase even if you continue to improve on your numbers and meet and/or exceed goals given to you in yearly reviews.

CGB Enterprises Response

Thank you for your kind words and affirmation about our organization's ethics and the quality of our people. I couldn't agree more. I greatly appreciate your feedback on our compensation as well (although it's a bit tougher to hear!). The issues you raise with respect to our base compensation & incentive plans are a subject of much discussion with our senior leadership team. Over the coming months, we're taking a long look at our "total rewards", seeking to understand how we can better align pay and performance. As you see other opportunities, please feel free to connect with me directly. Again, much thanks. Mark Berry, VP, HR

Pros

The pay is just ok for outside operations, you can make money during harvest hours but it can be tight during the off season due to lack of hours.

Cons

The people you work with are almost like family considering during harvest your with them more than your actual family. Outside operations is hard strenuous work. A lot of the work is dangerous such as barge loading,working from 200+ ft in the air,pulling tarps on ground piles that weigh a ton. The people in the office make significantly more money just sitting in there buying grain whilst the guys outside bust their butts to get sometimes unrealistic expectations done for half the pay...
