Okay - Accounting Columbia Grain Employee Review

I recently retired from Columbia Grain after more than 23 years working there as an IT systems administrator. The company has grown over the years, afforded me many opportunities to grow with them in IT. You are well appreciated by all for hard work, colleagues are friendly, management open to your ideas, The Portland office is professional and conveniently located in the city. I highly recommend a visit to the Portland office to see for yourself; self-motivated and talented individuals always welcome!

I don't have any cons to mention

I must enter five words.

In my forty-something years of life, I’ve never seen a more disfunctional organization. From blatant sexism and misogyny, to racism, deep-seated mental health issues, and just plain apathy regarding anything progressive, the cultish upper management group at this place is record setting. The CEO regularly sends slanted political commentary out to all employees, sees nothing wrong with his executive staff verbally abusing employees, and embraces the absolute void of direction to improve. I guarantee that he and his HR team are reading this with the sole concern of figuring out who wrote it, vs trying to see what everyone has been telling them and doing anything to correct their monumental issues. I would expect some action from their parent company, Marubeni, any time now. Poor pay, no opportunities for advancement (not that any normal person would be interested once they figure out what’s going on here), and it’s made very clear that they don’t care about their employees in general. Just check out their turnover rate; it’s record breaking. Bottom line - if you value respect in the workplace, work-life balance, or the ability to trust your HR department and executive staff to make any beneficial decision — or any decision at all — keep looking. If you’re a sexist narcissistic, you’ll be right at home at Columbia Grain.
