Pros

The expense budgets at AgData are very large. With the financial backing from Vista, access to capital is not a problem here. This gives AgData the ability to spend a lot on company events like the holiday party and other team building events. The salaries are slightly above average. You will get the autonomy to figure out what your job duties are.

Cons

The turnover rate at this company is ALARMINGLY high. It seems like everyone is around for about 8 months. Every quarter, there are massive restructuring moves including C level employees. This will make you have a different manager at least every 6 months. Neither Vista (the equity group that owns AgData) nor the management of AgData understand anything about the Ag industry. Not understanding the Ag industry is not necessarily a problem, but thinking you are an expert on the industry after a 30 minute conversation at a trade show is a huge problem. The largest problem with AgData is that they think they are Ag industry experts and have a unique, non replicable product. The reality is that AgData provides services that could easily be done in house by their large customers or completely copied by another service company.

AGDATA has been on a transformation journey so there have absolutely been changes within the organization, but we are positive these changes are moving the organization in the right direction. We pride ourselves on the client base we’ve established and the knowledge that our employees have within the industry. There is always room for improvement, but we do have very knowledgeable and tenured employees in the industry that help us meet client expectations every day. Thank you again for your review. CEO
