Pros

Pay and benefits good; some excellent people; successful business

Cons

Terrible work environment and worse communication from leadership. Constant change and little direction or discussion. Unclear and grossly inconsistent advancement of employees. Culture of silos is strong and perpetuated by leadership. Company approach still split between the two legacy companies. Unqualified and inexperienced people in leadership positions for political reasons and the sake of appearance. Extremely high workload and unrealistic expectations despite rhetoric about taking care of mental health. Progress happening to bring the two companies together but is very slow and poor communication and consultation with employees makes it excruciating sometimes

Thank you for your review. We recognize a merger of two large organizations can lead to significant change for some employees, and in some cases, the frustrations and additional uncertainty you have expressed. However, we feel strongly that as we move forward, these things will be addressed and remedied. If you bear with us during this time of transition and growth, we’re confident your experience will improve. We’d love to hear more from you, please feel free to send us an email at YourVoice@nutrien.com.

Pros

For the area, the pay is decent.

Cons

Management that does not care about the people. No flexibility in working anywhere other than the plant. Outsiders hired before qualified employees. Another merger/selling on the horizon - memo sent out to employees and then they were told it would not happen in 2026. Big changes happen every year such as benefits reduced, people being moved from one position to the other, employees getting fired after one small mistake instead of a warning as it used to be, corporate people leaving/getting fired.
