Sakata Seed America

Was a group of diverse personalities but casual and friendly.  I learned about growing seeds, vegetables, plants, and flowers as a good industry. I also learned new accounting software and got quite a good practice of my excel skills.

I started my accounting career in a small company where a function as an all around clerk, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, administrative assistant, & front desk personnel. I was grateful that I finally experienced working in a large company where there were so many people in each department. 

The hardest part I think are the month-ends and the most enjoyable part is when the book is closed and we can start with the new month.

Over all Sakata Seed is a good company with lots of great perks such as: Health insurance, 401k, dental and other benefits which are some of the best in the industry. There are several great people working here and they do have some very good products. However, they have a difficult time working with each other and different departments work against eachother which can create a very hostile environment. I believe if senior management would step up and address the issues and if they could focus on building a united team, Sakata could begin to retake market share which has been slowly slipping away.
The compensation is lower than standard.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Employee centered, good benefits, holidays, work environment.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
You have to be very social, you need to thrive on constant interaction.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Friendly, motivational, pushy.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Lots of people, lots of talking, going to meetings. Events.  And expected to get everything done on top of it all.

My experience with Sakata was the worst job-related experience I have ever had. The Zone Manager was largely absent, the tone was consistently condescending, and there was no interdepartmental communication. Overall, it was a terrible experience. 

By far was the worst job I ever had, management protected an employee that harassed and belittled employees. Best suggestion I can give is don't work in shipping department.

Sakata Seed America is an exceptional company to work for if you are working there as a laborer. Very little in the way of customer interaction, and everybody seems to know and understand the mission. 

Poor management, pay raises were horrible 3% a year. Their is a lot of favouritism with employees and definitely dont care about your family. Head managers words were "Manage them up or move them out" "they are all replaceable"

Great attitudes. Willing to help. Would be a great job for a person who loves to be on the go go. Will have some crazy hours but at times youll get normal 40 a week! Learned how to do paper work and how to run the machinces for the minimum time i worked there but still enjoyed it.

fast-paced environment with a supportive team. My role in shipping and receiving involved managing inventory, ensuring timely deliveries, and maintaining order accuracy. Great learning experience and solid team collaboration. Low career advancement

Management cared about your career.  Everyone wanted to work there, do a good job.  Helped everyone else do a good job.  Company appreciated employees, they knew happy employees meant productive employees.
