Pros
Nutrien has provided me with steady and stable employment for the last 12 years, with the occasional slump in the beginning due to market demands. The benefits and wages provided are industry competitive and fair. The benefits to working here are: set schedules, occasional and optional overtime, family activities outside of work, room for advancement, good job training, fair and inclusive atmosphere, and last but not least great people to work with. This company's main focus, besides producing and distributing agricultural products throughout the world, is to work safely and for everyone to go home safe each and every day. This attitude is shown right from the CEO, down to the site management and workers.
Cons
This job and site is not for everybody. The working conditions can be challenging at times, varying with the areas on site and seasonal temperatures. You can be working in hot and dusty environments shoveling, then go to standing in brine with slurry spraying on top of you while trying to patch a leak or get a piece of equipment running again. This job is both physically and mentally demanding , and you have to be ready for anything.
