Pros

If you are entirely unambitious, you can make a decent living here. The pay is decent for the area, and as long as you do nothing, you won't receive any harassment from the safety police.

Cons

If you have the audacity to attempt to do actual work, not only will you be chastised by the entirely useless hourly union staff, you will be bombarded by the salaried safety police. The safety culture is ridiculously hypocritical. No one follows the policies, and most people can't agree on what the policies actually are. I have yet to meet an employee here, union or salaried, who I would consider to be a hardworker. I wouldn't hire any of them. Their work ethic is evident in the condition of the plant. Their excuse, "it's 40 years old". The condition of the plant suggests absolute neglect rather than general wear and tear.

Safety is Nutrien’s top core value and is foundational to everything we do. This is more than a statement for us, it is a belief. Therefore, it’s unfortunate to hear that your experience in this area has not been a good one. With the recent combination of two large organizations, we continue to work to harmonize legacy policies. This work is ongoing but is nearing completion. Thank you for taking the time to submit a review.

Pros

Collaborative but individual work too. A lot of traveling to different sites

Cons

Individual work requires being open minded and doing own research or experimentation

Pros

For the area, the pay is decent.

Cons

Management that does not care about the people. No flexibility in working anywhere other than the plant. Outsiders hired before qualified employees. Another merger/selling on the horizon - memo sent out to employees and then they were told it would not happen in 2026. Big changes happen every year such as benefits reduced, people being moved from one position to the other, employees getting fired after one small mistake instead of a warning as it used to be, corporate people leaving/getting fired.
