Pros

A generally positive legacy of innovation

Cons

Recent Smart Industrial changes have been packaged with tone-deaf messages from many director/VP-level executives. Employee engagement results have been dropping, and leadership can't seem to figure out why. The culture is being ruined by a few dozen senior leaders obsessed with stock price.

Pros

Fun work, interesting problems to solve, good people in the office. Good 401k match.

Cons

Deere corporate doesn't care about it's employees. No promotions, tiny raises. No equity. Bad health insurance. Some people get promoted but only if you are good at kissing a** it seems.
