Negative Outlook
Approves of CEO
I have been working at John Deere full-time for more than a year
Pros
John Deere is very serious about employee safety and has processes in place to help to continually improve current operations.
Cons
Change is slow, often you can’t make improvement to processes because you have to involve a lot of different people in the change process. If you idea for change is a low priority for the ‘gatekeeper’, continuous improvement ideas will either die or take months to get fixed.
Advice to Management
Make process to create continuous improvement changes have a faster turn around time. Currently it is much too slow.
The atmosphere at John Deere is very inclusive and collaboration is encouraged. There is a strong sense of pride in doing the best job they can for customers.
Cons
If you are not from the midwest you have to adapt.
