Business Outlook

Pros

Decent compensation. Some departments have a laid back atmosphere. Decent vacation time. For the most part, people don't care about their job, so the best asset is to have sharp communication skills.

Cons

Finance/accounting is completely separate from the commercial side at ADM, and is therefore viewed simply as a cost, and not a strategic partner. In addition, the vast majority of these positions are in Decatur, Il- if you know ANYTHING about Decatur, then that should say enough. Hence, there is minimal in career development, and a 'just here for the paycheck' mentality. If you are career-oriented and motivated, finance/accounting in ADM is not for you. If your lifestyle is more of a soccer-mom, and you don't really care that much, then it might be perfect.

Business Outlook

Pros

It can be a great place to start a career. Get into the plant right away and get up close and personal with other employees and equipment/process. Get thrust right into engineering and have an endless supply of things to work on.

Cons

Not much in terms of pay increases, typically inflationary raises. To advance you need to transfer. Poor upper management at most plants, almost all chemical engineers. Spend more time doing operator type duties than engineering. Expected to work many hours with much time for personal life.

Business Outlook

Pros

There are some very knowledgeable and friendly people. Most people genuinely strive to do the right thing.

Cons

Poor structure and processes in 1ADM PMO. Insufficient training to get new hires up to speed in order to effectively do the role one is hired to perform. PMO leadership does not provide clear and stable priorities. They often provides conflicting directives and ask project management team to work overtime to make up for their bad leadership. Pay is low when taking into account what management asks a project manager to perform.
