CGC - Executive Assistant ContiGroup Employee Review

- Great opportunity for entrepreneurial people to grow and develop quickly - A lot of effort by leaders over the past few years to refine the company's purpose, strategy, and culture - Global, best-in-class network of relationships in the food and ag. sector

- Less training or apprenticeship than you might get at a larger company

The lack of a clear strategy creates opportunities for young people or new arrivals to lead new initiatives, sometimes with considerable responsibility and autonomy, if they get the buy-in of senior people. For corporate functions, the company compensates reasonably well and seems to provide a fine quality of life.

The lack of a strategy creates inertia in decision-making, some in-fighting among leadership and a difficult morale situation for professionals.
