Pros

- Fast paced organization that is quickly growing, leading to a lot of opportunity to make an impact - A lot of genuinely talented and good people in the organization - Most of the leadership group stays connected with the organization; not uncommon to hear the VP of your department admit they need help or ask you for your expertise

Cons

- Disorganization in a lot of areas; rapid growth + acquisitions has led to multiple overlapping processes - Lack of established guidelines/best practices in a lot of areas - Direct career pathing not possible in all departments

Pros

Trystar has a strong, team-oriented culture where people genuinely support one another and collaborate across departments. Leadership is approachable and clearly invested in both the company’s growth and its employees. There’s a consistent focus on delivering high-quality solutions, and it feels rewarding to be part of an organization that takes pride in its work. It’s also a fast-paced environment, which keeps things engaging and is something I really enjoy.

Cons

Like many high-growth companies, processes and structure are still evolving, which can occasionally create ambiguity. That said, I wouldn’t necessarily consider this a drawback—it’s a natural part of growth and something many will find exciting, as it creates opportunities to contribute and shape how things are built moving forward.

Pros

Trystar is both part of a quickly growing industry and is itself a rapidly growing organization, which leads to a LOT of opportunities for you to make an impact. Leadership is generally very open and empowering, and you feel like your work actually makes an impact on the future of this company. Senior Leadership is almost across the board very genuine, nice people who you enjoy working with. You'll have a VP or C-suite person tell you "I'm not strong in this area and I'm looking to you for guidance" - a level of humility you typically do not see from people in these roles. Company does offer strong benefits/compensation, generally, and is making consistent efforts to improve. There has been a noticeable focus on employees in the last year or so.

Cons

It's a rapidly changing/growing company, so there are some pain points you'll find along the way. There are immature processes, and you'll find numerous opportunities to improve the organization that you may have expected to be already well established. They have a high number of locations, which can cause a bit of a headache trying to get things done, and they can focus a bit too much on the main manufacturing site in Faribault.
