Mission-driven startup like all the others - Organizing Manager Farmigo Employee Review

* Farmigo employees are enthralled by the mission and come together to create a better food system. * Open communication and transparency is deeply encourage and respected across teams and management. * The team represents a diverse and fresh culture where ideation and key decision-making germinates from all points of the organization.

* Team is continually growing and bringing in new talent.

The office at Farmigo feels more like a coffeehouse than a corporate environment. Makes it a nice place to work each day. Team members are always willing to hangout during the day and vent about their workloads. Employee discount on groceries is a huge plus.

One of the main concerns that I have about Farmigo is the transparency about the future of the business. We were told that we had raised another round of venture backing in June, but there hasn't been any press or media coverage to confirm this. Usually when startups raise another round, they want people to know so as to prove that the company is on the right track. We are also expanding into a new market with Seattle before we have mastered how we do what we do in New York and Berkeley. The other issue with Farmigo is the pay is pretty lousy. Normally this expected at a startup, but we aren't even offered performance related bonuses. It feels like Farmigo wants you to burnout and will then replace you.
