Title: UNIT SUPERVISOR-Monterrey
Primary Location: Garza Garcia
Function: Operations (CA)
John Deere is a foremost leader in the ag equipment business, and we continue to put a solid stamp on other industries. For over 185 years, the company’s portfolio of groundbreaking products has grown to include industries related to and outside of agriculture, including Turf, Construction and Forestry and Wind Technologies. The image of John Deere is no longer that of a signature green tractor meandering across a field; it’s been replaced with an image of acceleration, swift progress, and innovative leaping toward the company’s 200th year. The product line alone serves as proof with advances in machine performance, equipment automation, fleet management, and John Deere’s ongoing investment in emerging markets.
