Pros

Flexible working hours Patient local employees

Cons

Promotions are based only in friendship with Business Unit Management People getting harrased all over, especially people coming from an acquired company (Abocol) Management at the Business Unit make up the posting of open positions to try to cover up internally that the hiring processes are fair. Unexperienced management Heavy financial losses High turnover Terrible environment

Pros

Competitive pay and benefits, decent work/life balance (depends on your role), established and well regarded products.

Cons

They hire excellent people on the ground, but DEI hires in C-suite managmeent are bad. Toxic, narcissistic "leaders" are promoted based on gender instead of aptitude, and cancerous individuals are slow to be removed because of the emphasis on DEI. Yara used to be and could be a great place to work again, but they need to get rid of the problem people to get there.
