Pros

Good benefits (not compensation) Nice people Organized around big picture Great training programs for management Good corporate stewardship Community involvement High ethical & quality standards

Cons

Cargill is a collection of plants and remote locations. Division management varies in strength and quality. There is a disconnect between the strong ideas and intentions at the corporate level and to what extent this is pushed down thru the plant locations. There are great plants and bad plants, and no one is being pushed past their comfort zone.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
