Monsanto Employer Reviews

Great opportunity to learn and take initiative to do more within your position.

People are fun and very enthusiastic about the job that they are doing. A typical day at work for me is to drive a hagie in the fields all day. The people in charge of me are really helpful and understanding to any problems that arise in the field.

-nice work environment
-free coffee and water bottles
-flexible work schedule

A really nice place to work, has the feel of a start up company.

I would help do field days and sign fields. Also help collect data on corn root worm. My supervisor was awesome to work with.

My experience with Monsanto has been very educational and has allowed me to develop a wide range of skills and strengthen abilities learned in College. I have had the opportunity to experience and practice laboratory and business management, business finance, deal with federal agriculture regulations, as well as become immersed in a highly international – more... program with opportunities to interact with employees around the world and from diverse cultural backgrounds. – less

Great Corporate backing. Attempted to break in to new horizons.
Division closed after funding withdrew.

The people here are great to work with. My only problem is not being compensated via title and pay for doing the same things my peers are doing. We are a small site at RTP and yet the communication on all levels has not been what it should be for the last seven years. I am glad I have a job but feel undervalued at this time and wish to find employment – more... that has compensation in line with the duties that are being performed. – less

Travel regularly to different locations (away from home at least 15 days of every month). Started with zero qualifications and experience in Occupational Safety and have managed to obtain formal qualifications and experience since 2004. Have also been promoted from initial position where I was responsible for one location to providing support to local – more... Occupational Safety person at the various locations.
I enjoy the interaction with different colleagues that I come into contact with. Resolving the challenges that we face in Africa when compared to Monsanto facilities in other world regions is fulfilling. – less

I have never seen people like this .Supervisors and workers and management ...

Good hours and overtime along with excellent outdoor work and plenty of new knowledge to gain.

I would get on the bus at around 4:30 every morning and about an hour and a half bus ride we would arrive at the corn fields. I worked anywhere from 6-7 hours a day.

I worked in the greenhouses at one of the farm sites. I was actually a tempory/contract employee that worked on a large experiment. The team was actually made of temporary/contract employees. The management on site was great. Everyone took their turn working weekends, holidays, and overtime. Any and all safety equipment required for any part of the – more... job was supplied by Monsanto. All in all it was a good experience. – less

I really enjoyed my job itself and some of the employees I worked with. Management was all about production not safety but always talked safety, would never listen to complaints or issues that needed to be adressed. Ther is no ownership so noone cares about their job quality. Management and upfront personal all about them looking good not whats best – more... for the company. – less

Good company - most everyone worked independently . Not a lot of team projects. I took care of the safety shoe and safety glasses programs so was in contact with most all the employees which I enjoy very much. Nothing really hard about the job - I enjoyed learning new skills.

I worked at Monsanto for 14 1/2 years. Handful of co-workers cared about their jobs and the other handful about a check.

worked for them for 13 years started when i was 13, I was offered full time employment and was hired but then my job was put on a hireing freeze I was asked if I would continue serving in the military and I told them that i was going to continue serving then I got layed off and had to take a volunteer deployment while I was deployed they hired another – more... person as a receptionist and then she was hired as a assistant wich was very similar to the job I was "hired" for, then a guy retired who had the exact same job that i was "hired" for. I was told that now they required a 4 year degree for all positions and that even though I was hired before that I was ineligible now because I did not have a 4 year degree. To me it seems pretty shady and underhanded but that is life I guess. good luck to anyone who obtaines employment with them. – less

work in seed lab sorting seeds to be sent to other labs for futher testing. Worked on as needed basis.

It doesnt matter if you are a contractor or a employee this is a great place to work. I worked in research organization for 6 years and thoroughly enjoyed. There is not much distinction between contractor and employee.

very hot long day work outside. Going to different site learn about how corn grow
