Pros

Multiple good teams and culture exist within the company. They have good ideas Opportunity to improve industry, support rural, and help agriculture

Cons

Pay is lower. Non compete limits local job opportunities and reduces rural strength No raises, only bonuses but bonus money pays out across multiple years with no interest. High stress environment due to staffing even when all positions are filled

Pros

Company with a mission to believe in - sustainable, renewable bio-based products, working toward zero carbon fuels and products. Leadership allows you to do your job and enables you to do it well. Bad managers/leaders don't last long here! Love being connected to teammates across the company footprint as "co-workers" instead of "customers". Innovative atmosphere - always searching for for the next big thing, but done in a calculated, responsible way. Beautiful, modern Sioux Falls campus with first-class onsite gym.

Cons

Politics/govt policy inherently intertwine with everything we do. Yuck. The company does a great job keeping us up to date on policy, politics. And they manage these (unfortunately necessary) political interactions with integrity.

Pros

The people and the culture here at Poet is better than I could ask for. Everyone is truly on the same team whether you are on the Ethanol side of the Biproducts side we all are on a mission to change the world together.

Cons

The only con I have is that I think that positions could be better explained during hiring process. Maybe for people who don't have as much of a background in crops and agriculture.
