All these companies are looking for fresh, young, hopefully educated, and highly exploitable persons willing to do their dirty work for low salaries… You should have highly specific experience, and, be willing to take low wages.

It seems highly unrealistic to me, that they will find the kind of labor they are looking for within the community of the North Coast.

Insist on good working conditions and a salary adequate to living in the very expensive locations and low housing availability in Mendocino County, and remember, no employer in Mendo is getting the workers they need! Negotiate well, always ask for more, and look for employers who provide housing!

The employers in this industry, and many other industries in Mendo and Humboldt, feel that they should be able to pay low, and treat their employees like criminals.

Best of luck, working in Mendo! Too crazy for me!

Here is a good example of how these companies think:

https://www.indeed.com/cmp/CB-Labs/jobs/Analytical-Chemist-b988f31ea16d4f59?q=cannabis&vjs=3

This employer mentions no salary, asks for specific experience but no particular education. This means LOW PAY!

Don’t get exploited by the Cannabis industry! Persons with very particular management and laboratory experience are passed over in favor of persons who got a little chemistry lab experience! Why? LOW PAY!

This is a developing industry, and folks will work for the promise of a future, but the fact is, no future is guaranteed!

Look on Indeed.com and search under Cannabis, California.

Hundreds of positions available! One last tip: Never apply for a position where the wage is not mentioned up front! Wastes less time, yours and theirs!

Now all the cannabis companies want to hire the entrepreneurs they put out of business. Numerous Old School growers have been ripped of their livlihood by prop 64 and the Mendo board of supervisors. It is a complete slap in the face to the people who created these rare strains and produced cannabis at a time cultivators were actually risking their homes and livlihood.
