Pluspunten

I work in the Science Division, which is composed of a few teams working on solving very interesting problems. I get to apply and extend research from my PhD thesis, which is very satisfying. My colleagues are smart and thoughtful individuals (statisticians, machine learners and domain scientists). It is a pleasure to collaborate with them. We participate in key science and statistics conferences, and we host influential scientists and statisticians regularly for seminar talks or extended visits.

Minpunten

There has been a lot of changes since the acquisition by Monsanto, including restructuring some of the teams within the Science Division and creating new ones. Those changes created some uncertainty and confusion. The management realized this and began providing more updates. Also, open communication about employees' career goals and professional development is still needed.

Pluspunten

Great Team: super smart, passionate and friendly people. We take the no a-hole rule seriously! Mission: the folks that work here are genuinely motivated by our mission. We end up attracting a lot of people that defect from other tech companies b/c they are looking to do something more impactful than optimizing advertising revenue or hawking consumer electronics. Challenges: It's very cool to be part of a company that is making big bets and trying to solve an age old problem (growing food) in a very new way. I feel like we are at the cutting edge of something big. there are a few other companies out there trying to do the same thing, but i feel we have assembled the best team and resources assembled to succeed. Product: our actual product is pretty darn neat. i am proud to demo it to customers, partners and friends alike. and it is getting cooler by the month. Comp/Ben: Great benefits / incentive packages and fun workplace. The vesting schedule is a little long term though.

Minpunten

we have a lot of offices across the US (Seattle, Chicago, SF, St. Louis, Central Ill.). this can make it tough to stay on the same page as your colleagues, especially when some of these other offices have functional specialities. we should do a better job of fostering cross-office dialogue. The vesting schedule is a little long term.
