      Company APPEARS to want to know where they can improve

      Pros

      Nice location, nice offices, many building perks (credit union, company store). Recent investment on updating the cubicles and conference rooms.

      Cons

      Company-wide surveys are distributed and employees are encouraged to complete them. Any improvements needed are pushed back on the employees on finding solutions. Once improvement steps are provided, little to no improvements take place. There is a lack of female managers in IT and some that are there should be relocated to non-managerial positions. Human Resources is made aware of issues with managers but changes are so slow that MANY of the best employees have already left.

      Land O'Lakes succeeds in spite of itself

      Pros

      Household name and Fortune 250 company. Some pockets of excellence scattered among largely mediocre organization. Pretty competitive salaries. Decent corporate offices and resources. Cooperative business model; company owned by dairy farmer and co-op members.

      Cons

      Disappointing senior leadership -- very top-down leadership style; don't trust employees. Organization very resistant to change. Much less employee friendly than it once was. None of the company's businesses can forecast well -- year-end numbers always a guessing game. Most departments staffed poorly, very thin. Company has quietly laid off a considerable amount of employees in past year.
