CHS Inc – “CHS a great company with a strong stable past.”

Pros

CHS is a diverse company with lots of opportunities within different industries if you chose to pursue them. The company is well established with a great track record of financial success. CHS has taken great strides to improve training opportunities for employees. In recent years they have worked at strengthening the CHS name by bringing all of the business units under the same name. This recognition is much better than it was 5 years ago. CHS is well respected in the agricultural industry because of the great leadership and integrity John Johnson has displayed while he has been in his current role.

Cons

CHS seems to still be a very old fashioned company that doesn't promote employee movement unless you, as an employee, push for change. The limited movement can make it a frustrating place to work if you are wanting advancement. CHS is diverse but this diversity can be a downfall because they are not a major player in any single area which doesn't make them a market leader.

Advice to Senior Management

Keep employees engaged and encourage more movement from business unit to business unit.
