Vantaggi
Outstanding and supportive people. They strive for excellence while serving their customers to the best of their ability. Culture is okay, the grain marketing team leads on culture and innovation more than other departments. Great compensation. Open to ideas and offer great feedback after hearing those ideas. Overall, they teach you a lot about your role within the company.
Svantaggi
Company wide, things did not feel aligned. Some departments treated customers differently than others, leading to bad customer service experiences across the board. Internally, It didn’t seem like they were open to a cross-functional team growing environment. It felt classist as well, with the uppers partaking in certain workplace functions that excluded vital team members. They might leave you in the dark on company changes that could affect you or relationships that you build with the customer. While it’s not your job to know everything as an originator, you should at least be aware that you have some degree of agency where you work, and IAS does not provide that.
