Headquarters is great combination of small startup culture and big company thinking

Pros

I work in the headquarters office in Austin. Everyone is an expert in what they do, many from much bigger companies. We all joined Vital Farms to be part of something we personally believe in and professionally enjoy. I have been here two years and find a fantastic balance of big company resources and talent with small startup speed and creativity. It is fantastic.

Cons

You have to be a confident self-starter in a small scrappy culture. Lots of room to influence and make an impact but you have to raise your voice and be passionate. And it isn't a big company so many things are nebulous. Not much process or structure. I like that a lot but it isn't for everyone.

Great Work Culture and Coworker, but Pay is lackluster

Business Outlook

Pros

I love my coworkers and manager. It is a very fast growing company which means there are a lot of changes which can be stressful, but the communication is pretty good.

Cons

They talk about BS free and valuing transparency, but there is no transparency in pay and they don’t really offer competitive salaries in my experience.

Vital put their faith in one person who turned out to be an awful human being

Pros

Exciting concept, rewarding mission, great people

Cons

Leadership let a single person have too much power and she abused it. I would guess she ended a lot of careers at Vital, but leadership refused to see it.
