Pros

- This may be department dependent but I found that almost everyone I interacted with to be a joy to be around - Decent company culture although that has been changing with new executive leadership

Cons

Leadership is severely lacking. Company is biting off more than it can chew. Much of talking the talk, but a lack of actual results from the executive suite Industry is old-fashioned and is behind the times when it comes to standards and procedures Co-op company structure seems to be a major pitfall for most projects.

Farm Credit Financial Partners (FPI) Response
8y
FPI has experienced significant change in the past 24 months and I appreciate the impact the change has had on our entire organization. Our growth in recent years, from 160 employees supporting $28B assets under management to 240 employees with $40B assets under management, required us to change our business practices in a very short time frame. FPI has very quickly become a higher-energy, even more dynamic work environment, with a focus on leveraging the latest technologies to deliver on our key initiatives. 2017 was a fantastic year for the company, as we delivered on those key initiatives to our existing customers while integrating new customers into the FPI family. Change is a natural part of an organization’s evolution, including FPI’s, creating new opportunities for every employee to have an impact on our future. I recognize that change can be difficult and that it impacts every employee differently. For those who took the opportunity to move on from her/his FPI career, I wish you success in your future endeavors. Best Regards, Howard Bruck, CEO

Pros

Everyone was very nice and outgoing great environment to work in and learn in. I Would go back the company had many fun events and I felt at home within the first week of being there.

Cons

The timing was unfortunate because they got a new manager on the same day I started so he didn't know how to guide me at first because he had started the same day I did.

Pros

Lot of good people working there when I was there. The folks who have been there the longest on the technical side are phenomenal and so supportive and patient.

Cons

The culture was very stressful. Everything was always an emergency. Developers were expected to do everyone's job and then of course also blamed for anything that went wrong. When I was there, the on call expectations were insane. From day one they made it clear that the expectation is that you will work way more than 40 hours/week (when there's an emergency! which was always) and not be paid well for it.
