Reviews
My role involves working closely with dealers, supporting them with sales help and knowledge for all ag products, with a focus on precision ag. My role involves quite a bit of travel, as I look after the QLD, NT and Northern NSW region. A key focus for my role is mainstreaming the technology suite that John Deere offers across all our machines, for our customers
As a graduate, it depends on the team we are currently in as to what our day-to-day looks like. Currently, I am working heavily with our US counterparts to enhance existing advertising processes. I meet regularly with both my internal team members and external staff to achieve our project goals. I am responsible for project budget and information management currently - however this responsibility may change when I rotate to a new team
My current role varies between each 3 month rotation and project

Pros and cons of working at John Deere
Pros
John Deere has given me an opportunity to work in a field that encompasses both my passions in Machinery and Agriculture.
The graduate program offers a fantastic opportunity to rotate around the various teams within the business, and complete/assist in projects. There is a huge amount of exposure as a result, and we are extremely well supported in rotating to areas that we are interested in.
Cons
An improvement would be more time out of office working in field roles.
The worst thing about working at my company is the lack of social events in last year due to Covid. It is reduced a lot due to Covid in last 2 years.
