Pros

Great products and farming practices. From a consumer perspective, it is something to be proud to spend your money on. The farmers are really the best part of the company. Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Although this is a "smaller" company, this is the most political company that I have ever worked for. There are clear hierarchies and "status" within the company. They have a record of doing a lot of constructive discharges, meaning forcing employees to resign rather than be terminated. If they want you gone, they will find a reason to get you out. They advertise that they offer lots of inclusive training and employee development, but it is really not true if you start talking to those working there. There is very minimal support for any development plan and it is difficult to get internal sponsors to help with the development plans. There are so many smart employees that are willing to grow with them, but if someone with the "status" doesn't like them, your're gone.

Pros

- Leadership saw many of the inefficiencies and system gaps — there was genuine interest in improving things, even if the follow-through was slower than needed. - My manager was supportive, appreciative, and relied on me in meaningful ways. - The people were kind, hardworking, and sincerely cared about doing things well. - I always felt included and respected, even as a contractor.

Cons

- Even though problems were recognized, I wasn’t given the go-ahead to actually implement new systems or resolve the inefficiencies affecting the team. - Management was waiting for larger organizational clarity about the future direction and function of this department, and during that waiting period the team’s day-to-day experience suffered. - Most requests came in through email with no centralized system, which made it difficult to track, prioritize, or delegate work effectively. - Documentation was inconsistent or missing, so knowledge often lived in people’s heads rather than in shared processes. - The delay in addressing long-standing operational issues contributed to burnout and turnover.
