Pros

Great people to work with. Strong R&D based organization with a lot of new products that create excitement within employees. Great benefits. Strong reputation with customers. Always opportunities to advance, as long as you can relocate each time.

Cons

Disconnect between senior managers and employees, facilities in Greensboro, NC are embarrassing compared to what other companies offer as a work environment. Company tried to integrate in 2011 but decided to keep a seeds office in MN and CP office in NC. Sales team is being asked to do too much across all product lines and crops, long hours are needed to keep up.
