Pros
All of the things that used to make farmers a great place to work have been taken away. Fair pay, good benefits, pension plans, fully remote position
Cons
Farmers announced full remote permanently for almost all positions and that they were selling or leasing out our offices. Without warning, we were told that we would no longer be remote, it would be 3 days in office as long as you live within 50 miles. They aren’t even using 50 miles of driving, they did this with a Birds Eye view. They aren’t taking consideration how much of a difference 50 miles makes in a big city vs more rural or smaller towns. They are committing quiet firing to avoid layoffs. This is obvious as they recently hired many new employees and then rescinded their offer, offered promotions that were taken away, reduced our profit sharing, didn’t give merit raises in 2022. People built permanent home offices, sold their vehicles, moved, made life decisions based on our permanent remote work status.
