Most innovative...for losing investor money

Pros

Pay and Benefits are good if you get to keep them.

Cons

CEO and the COO who was recently appointed by the absentee board are not aligned and consistently deliver conflicting messaging to employees. CEO laughed while addressing how badly the multiple rounds of layoffs have gone but never apologized or took responsibility for the decisions that lead to it. In fact, nobody in a management position had to take responsibility. They have no clue how to measure carbon and are pedaling empty promises to both investors and farmers. Commercial side is a train wreck. I guess that's what happens when you don't have a single person with any industry experience. It's so bad a VP actually decided to put on a pair of Dickies overalls and rubber boats while pretending to be a 'farmer'. Here, "hold my beer" while I alienate the culture of both your employees and your customers. We aren't stupid, you're just ignorant.

Pros

Some great teams with really smart people.

Cons

Indigo has lost sight of their original mission. Complete lack of knowledge and understanding by senior leadership on how to make a useful or successful product. Focus changes from week to week and no solid plans are ever put in place. The firing of almost the entire R&D team should be a red flag to anyone who thinks this is an innovative company. Read up on the CEO. This is just another retread of his previous failed attempts at creating B2B marketplaces (Chemdex).

Pros

Amazing teammates. Lots of cold salads.

Cons

Any decent leader would apologize for this crazy layoff. I was at indigo for longer than most, and because I thought we were doing good work. And this is how you treat us? Without any notice, we had to leave after meeting with our team leader and getting laid off out of the blue? We didn't even had time to send out thank you emails or exchange personal contact information, because our email/slack were deactivated immediately and we were immediately escorted out the door by yet another new hire from the “people team”.
