First, we want to assure you that we use any and all feedback as an opportunity for learning and introspection. We are disappointed that you felt unfulfilled by your experience at Vital Farms. We strive to create a culture that embodies our core values of growth, humility, empathy, and ownership—and we believe much of what you’ve shared can be addressed by contextualizing how we practice these values across the business.
Everyone at Vital Farms is held accountable to our values, beginning with our leadership team to our crewmembers across the country—whether it’s listening and seeking to understand each other, validating others’ points of views and feelings, or leaving our egos at the door, maintaining an uncompromising belief that we win and lose as a team, not as individuals.
Our mission is to bring ethical food to the table. We’re doing this by challenging the norms of factory farming and building a more ethical food system. Our work is ambitious and extends far beyond measuring ourselves by quotas. Our value to lead with a growth mindset means that our crewmembers bring the drive to succeed, the desire to learn, and the energy to keep raising the standards every day. We know we must hold ourselves to the same high standards that we expect for the food system, and we believe every crewmember at Vital Farms is motivated and inspired by our values, mission, and ambition to disrupt the food system for good.
