Pros

I looked into nominating Farm Journal for the Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplace Award. I was unable to do so as it requires a company to have over 100 people specifically in Chicago. I think that the company’s dedication to communication, to its core values and to employees is worthy of recognition, especially during this tough year for all. I love and appreciate my job and the company.

Cons

Could use additional team members in some areas

Thank you for taking the time to share this review! We are so glad that you are seeing all the positive changes in the way we operate. We also appreciate the comment about some unsteadiness. Rapid change can indeed cause some fatigue, and we will continue to encourage frequent communication, based on transparency, to address it.
