Unqualified Leadership

Pros

Farm Journal has amazing people dedicated to agriculture, providing some of the best content to producers. Though understaffed, they continue to show dedication to their responsibilities.

Cons

The executive team lacks any ag background & as a result, often appear unknowledgeable or uninformed, and can become defensive when questioned, which has led to some poor business decisions, hurting the company's culture & business health.

Pros

Innovative with a growth mindset. Making big moves in the world of streaming, data and more. Overall great place to work, good people and low drama. Flexible work environment with most of the company being remote.

Cons

Has lost some of its culture recently with a large portion of leadership being non-ag background. Has come a long way operationally, but still struggling with process.
