Thank you for taking the time to write a review – it is always great for us to get feedback. I’m sorry to hear that you felt like you had poor growth opportunities at Indigo. Certainly for a company growing as quickly as we are, we believe that career opportunities abound, but we want to make sure our people are experiencing those opportunities. Building out strong career paths for all of our people is a priority in 2018 and we have just finished putting together a Learning & Development strategy for the organization that we actually are sharing with everyone at Indigo this week which will directly address your points. I’m also sorry you feel that our core values were not embraced in some parts of our company; as you know, our core values are an integral part of every team at Indigo and form the backbone for who we are and the work we do. I encourage anyone to talk with the People Team if they are feeling our values are not being upheld. Thanks again for your feedback and I wish you the best of luck in your future career.

Thank you for writing your review of Indigo. I think that the chances for growth as well as constant learning within a mission-driven organization are some of the things that make Indigo a truly special place to work. Thank you also for raising your concerns. I’m sorry to hear that you feel that Indigo is hierarchical; if you’re comfortable doing so, I’d encourage you to talk with your manager, department head, or someone on the People Team so we can work together to address your concerns. We sincerely want our people to be empowered to contribute and innovate without miscommunication or feeling encumbered. We’re proud of our internal Innovation Exchange, and part of our 2017 plan is to continue looking for new ways to encourage and reward innovation. As far as scientific expertise, I’m surprised to hear your comment and wonder where it is coming from. We’ve been lucky in attracting incredible talent from bigger agricultural and life sciences companies due to their passion and belief in our mission – which inspires many of us every day. However, if you have ideas for expertise areas/companies that we are not currently represented in, we’d love to hear your suggestions directly. I truly hope that the pros for you far outweigh the cons, and again encourage you to come forward so your ideas and concerns can be heard directly. Thank you for caring about our success.
