Pros

Company provided health insurance. No out of pocket expenses. That’s what’s keeping most people there. Pay isn’t great but isn’t horrible for the area.

Cons

Oh geez where do I start. Total disconnect between office and greenhouse workers. It’s like working for two separate companies. Benefits are even different between the two. Management have the ability to purchase stock at a set price. Which translates to thousands of dollars per year available to them. Orange shirts don’t have that luxury. Advancement isn’t about what you know but who you know there. 6 day work weeks were standard while I was there. They advanced people based on who you knew there and how often you worked everyday. AppHarvest wants you to be married to the business. So if you are new and just starting out remember that. Your experience will depend a lot of who your assistant growers are. Some good and some really bad ones. I had a really bad one and multiple people quit because of it.

Pros

Coworkers at the production level, Benefit premiums paid for. Free snacks and lunch on wensday.

Cons

Mandatory overtime, Lack of consideration regarding safety. Some managers will ignore OSHA and State regulations. Particularly regarding heat index. You may be worked to the point of exhaustion where injuries will occur, and also a large degree of sexual harassment from Management towards female employees.
