Pros

Very few, except there have been some very good people working there. Most have already left though. And on their terms; no one was fired. Lots of free time because well, leadership, or lack thereof; many people don’t know which direction they’re going one week after the next.

Cons

The CEO is dishonest to his core. Inconsistent in his leadership, he changes course too often, leading to confusion and wasted resources. When someone puts in their notice to quit, he completely freaks out. (There have been a Lot!) No inclusion, no tolerance at All. It’s a narrow minded outlook at this company with only a few views allowed on a regular basis. Everyone else is shot down - be careful what you say on chat! Within a few months of starting there, I was fearful I had joined a completely fraudulent company. Data science is so disconnected from “real” science, it’s almost comical.

Climax Foods Response
3y
We find it very unlikely that this is from an actual former employee, since none of these concerns were ever raised to our HR or DEI representatives. But whoever it is from, they are not committed to our mission to improve the sustainability, kindness, and nutrition of our food system. We also all share a tremendous respect for our Founder and CEO. This and all other recent 1 star reviews came within a few weeks on the heels of our wonderful teams recent massive successes all over the news. Coincidence? Anyone interested in one of our new roles but concerned by these “reviews” is encouraged to reach out to any of our existing colleagues via LinkedIn.
