Pros

Always seeing good changes happening at John Deere. The company has been around for nearly two centuries and its long-term focus on the agriculture customers and innovation provides a very stable work setting with very good benefits

Cons

Limited and undesirable work locations (rural upper midwest). Process-orientation can limit the speed to market with new technologies.

Pros

You can balance personal life goals, career goals all with a great feeling and self engagement into a company that helps keep the world fed.

Cons

Vary localized organization, if you look into expanding ding horizons abroad, its hard to get hooked into these opportunities although you can escalate locally.

Pros

Deere offers flexible work hours & arrangements, opportunity for training and career growth, has a zero tolerance policy on harassment, bullying & retaliation, and uses the performance management system to document achievements throughout the year and determine pay raises. All wonderful and valuable tools.

Cons

Deere may say they offer flexibility, training, and career growth, but try asking for it. They go to great lengths to make sure quite the opposite occurs. Someone harasses or bullies you? Well you better suck it up and quit taking it personally. Whatever you do don’t report it. Making someone else look into it and fill out paperwork only means you better prepare for retaliation. And I’ve personally had to use performance management against people more times than I’ve used it to help make a case for them. The ratings are assigned and approved by Senior management before employee comments are submitted anyway. As managers we can give employees whatever ratings we want for whatever reasons we want.
