Pros

JDAS is a division of John Deere that provides information services to the food supply chain. John Deere is a great brand and a terrific company so it is good to be part of that organization. The main benefit is being part of John Deere.

Cons

JDAS itself is mired in bureaucracy. Senior Management is disengaged, unable to make decisions, and fails to communicate with employees. For each of the past four years there have been major reorganizations, adjustments of job rankings, and shifts in strategic direction. The result is a constant state of confusion, concern, and inability to focus on the customer.

Pros

* The John Deere values - Integrity, Quality, Commitment, and Innovation. * Process-oriented company. * Financially sound. * Overall, good, balanced, humble people to work with.

Cons

Senior Management has been doing a good job of making sure they are living up to the John Deere values. But Middle Management is lacking. Efforts are being made to make the company an "inclusive" company to attract, develop, and retain the best talent. Some parts of the company are making progress; other parts of the company are still entrenched in the "Old Boys Network".
