Terrible culture - Charlestown R&D

Pros

Benefits are good. If you don’t question anything and keep a smile on your face you will be rewarded. Get in with the right people, play along with the politics and get promoted.

Cons

HR turns a blind eye to toxic culture and bullying, R&D management cherry picks data and lies to meet their goals and impress shareholders. Employees in perfect standing getting let go suddenly because they weren’t needed anymore. Little room for advancement; they will make people chase after promotions for years while piling on the work. If you care about doing sound science and want to feel rewarded by your work this is NOT the place for you.

Hi there and thank you for your feedback. As someone who was part of Indigo for so long, I’m truly sorry that you have not had a good experience, and this is disappointing to read. You mention bullying and so I’ll take a moment to detail what happens when we someone comes to us with a concern about bullying. Immediately the People Business Partner will investigate by talking with the person who raised the issue, the person allegedly doing the bullying, and anyone who may have witnessed the situation described. The People Business Partner evaluates the claim and discusses it with me and our General Counsel. In the spirit of transparency, we have had two bullying investigations in the past 2 years and we resolved both situations as rapidly as we could while being sure we gathered complete information. I’m concerned that you question the zero tolerance policy and I would be happy to discuss further with you about this and your other concerns. Again while disappointing to read, I am really grateful when people write in to Glassdoor as it gives us an opportunity to learn how people feel. Even if I have a different perspective, if you are not having a good experience, there is an opportunity for us to do better. Thank you.

Pros

The goals of Indigo are astounding. To be a part of a company that is so driven towards agricultural improvements and sustainability is inspirational. I feel fortunate to work for an organization that has so many people working so hard to achieve those goals. As someone who is passionate about ag, there is no company I’d rather work for. Salary and benefits are excellent.

Cons

Work life balance continues to be a challenge, because Indigo has such lofty goals. It is slowly improving, as more fantastic people are hired.

Pros

Indigo's hiring managers have done a fantastic job of hiring an amazing group of people. These people make this job extremely enjoyable, support the develop of one another, and really make Indigo what it is. This is what makes the culture as strong as it is - team player, strong support mentality, and give everything you can to progress the team.

Cons

Communication from leadership to the majority of the employees has been a challenge.
