Crop Defenders Ltd.

This company is goal oriented, solution driven, changed direction a few years ago, and has grown vastly over the years since then. They have true core values that are believed in and the team members stand behind. Everyone tries to support one another and hold each other accountable, not just with work but with life goals as well. Expectations can be high and they try to promote team and independent thinking, and do not necessarily believe in holding one’s  hand day in and out, so they may not be for everyone, or the faint of heart so to speak. But unless you try you will never know what you can do. So you may be pushed at times where you may be slightly uncomfortable, for example; giving a presentation to a large audience, but there is always support and a team believing you can do it behind you. If you’re not one for putting in effort, pushing yourself or becoming an integral part of a company, then I would advise not to apply here. Work hours are typical to any business, which is less than I used to work before Crop Defenders, especially given the greenhouse industry. No weekends! They truly try to bring more of a family atmosphere and even though they grow, they try to keep the small family feeling within it. There is always room for growth, learning and advances.  

I really enjoyed the day-to-day of my job and the production team I worked with, but left the company due to horrible management. I am not usually someone to let a bad boss bother me, but management was both intolerable on an interpersonal relations level and prevented me from succeeding in my position. 

Regularly had to work 60+ hour weeks, management had unrealistic expectations of the team, multiple issues with pay being incorrect, completely disorganized organizational structure and communications systems, various health and safety concerns went unresolved when brought to the attention of upper management, and company refused to pay overtime or holiday pay to production team until complaints were filed with the Ministry of Labour.

Started work at 3am some mornings (at the latest 5am) and shifts always began incredibly fast paced. Soon after work was very slow with minimal management and instruction. Mistakes were a huge deal. Was expected to do jobs outside of my position (like cleaning) instead of what I was hired to do.
Way too much hurry up then wait (especially to be working as fast as you possibly can at 3am then working for 12 hours.)
Was also told I would be hired full time but wasn't actually given the opportunity.
At least they were lenient with breaks and packaging tech coworkers were friendly.

Can be disorganized at times. Need to be a person who can change on the fly and not get stressed out by the fast paced environment. The people that like to work here like to be challenged, multi-task and wear many hats at the same time. But that can mean being pulled out of your comfort zone, and having to solve problems sometimes without a lot of guidance, which can be frustrating for some, but super rewarding for others.  Not for people who need very straight forward daily tasks, or highly organized work environments.

Local company, proud of offering excellent service/products to customers.
Working on organizing their growth, and its coming along. 
Really cool industry, cutting edge research. 
Love the variety of people this company brings together. Really diverse group, lots of different backgrounds and specialties. 
Some days can be hectic. But I like being busy/challenged. If you like being busy, like not having a limit on what you can do, and can also be flexible, this is a great place to work.

I’ve been working at Crop Defenders for over 2 years, and it’s been a great learning experience. The company is at the cutting edge of biological pest control for greenhouses, and I’ve had the chance to work with some really smart people who care about sustainability and innovation. Leadership is approachable, and they genuinely value feedback from the team. The training provided helped me understand biocontrol strategies and how to apply them in real greenhouse environments.

Working at Crop Defenders LTD has truly redefined what work-life balance means to me. The culture here supports not just professional growth, but also personal well-being. With fair compensation, challenging yet fulfilling projects, and a team that feels more like family, every Monday feels like a new opportunity — not a drag.

I genuinely enjoy the work I do, the people I do it with, and the support I receive every step of the way.

If you're looking for a place where you're valued, inspired, and excited to start the week — this is it. 

honestly one of the worst places I’ve worked. Expectations too high , management always complaining and yelling about how bad of a job you are doing. Owners and managers really don’t care about you or other employees. The only redeeming thing are Coworkers are actually good people and okay to work with. Would definitely not recommend anyone work for this terrible company. If there was an option I’d give this place NO STARS

A great overall company. Definitely bumps in the road to becoming the massive company this will be. The owner and his wife are very genuine and fair people. I can honestly say is one job, I regret letting go. You have to be willing to take a learning curve and not allow stress to get in the way of success. I would definitely consider going back if I am offered!
